    This should not be allowed. Trump is a private citizen and does not work for our government. He has no business meeting with foreign leaders about anything.

      I kinda have a suspicion that he was already doing this. Even if Trump wasn’t working with Netanyahu before, Netanyahu clearly prefers Trump, and Biden was playing into his hands.

      But Harris isn’t president and isn’t in a position to help Netanyahu with his genocide.

      This reads to me like Trump and Netanyahu are meeting to see how to change their strategy to get Trump elected.

      If that is what he’s trying, he should try it with someone else. America was pretty united on the hostage situation in 1980.

      I’ve been saying this. Netanyahu is going to keep the war going until after the election, hoping the bad press drains support from the democratic candidate. Netanyahu would rather see Trump in office anyway. If you’re still blaming the war going on in Gaza on the democrats, just wait until Trump gets in office and gives his support for the total and permanent occupation of Gaza. You’re behaving just as Netanyahu wants you to by not voting for the democrat in November.

    It’s for that guy there is a question on the USA visa application form. :

    Do you seek to engage in or have you ever engaged in terrorist activities, espionage, sabotage, or genocide? ☐

    I’m sure he ticked yes, but they still let him in.

    Isn’t there an arrest warrant out for Netty-boo?

    It’d be an awful shame if he didn’t make that meeting. Alternatively, revoke his visa and/or deny him entrance.

    He’s not here on diplomatic stuff, if he’s meeting with Trump, so he probably needs a visa.

      The US does not recognize the International Criminal Court in The Hague. In fact, the US has given itself the legal right to invade The Hague in case they ever charge a US citizen or one of their allies.

        We don’t necessarily have to respect the warrant.

        Netanyahu is meeting with Trump to interfere in the US elections. There is no legitimate diplomatic reason for him to do that.

        Revoke his visa and order him to leave the country; when he refuses… put him on a plane. For somewhere in the SCC.

    Netter just deported a ton of people from Gaza, time to act like trunp de-escalated the war and Netty will call for a seize fire gets to take the land back while everyone is deported.
