President Trump is meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu at the White House. They will discuss peace in Israel, defeating Hamas, and countering Iran. This is the first meeting with a foreign leader since Trump's second term began. There was a conflict between Israel and Hamas on October 7, 2023. Many people were killed, and civilians were displaced. Netanyahu defended his actions during this conflict. Trump and Netanyahu were close allies, but their relationship became strained after the 2020 election. Netanyahu congratulated Joe Biden, which upset Trump. They patched things up when Netanyahu visited Trump in July. This meeting is important for the alliance between Israel and the United States. Netanyahu has visited the White House 14 times, more than any other foreign leader. They hope to make positive changes in the Middle East.
