WATCH VIDEO: Are huge Mideast headlines coming soon? Trump & Netanyahu plot next moves on Iran, Gaza, Abraham Accords
But one topic is creating stress for Netanyahu and Evangelicals — I explain in the video

WASHINGTON, D.C. — It’s true that no major announcements were made during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu’s four days at the White House or on Capitol Hill.
Netanyahu and President Donald J. Trump didn’t even hold a press conference in the Oval Office or the East Room — even though such events are standard operating procedure for foreign leaders visiting the White House.
But don’t mistake the lack of big headlines for a lack of high-stakes strategy.
Neither Trump nor Bibi scheduled the trip to make news.
Rather, they wanted to spend hours sitting together in person — face to face, heart to heart — doing two things that are tough to accomplish over the phone or via Zoom.

First, Trump and Netanyahu wanted to carefully assess — with their top military and intelligence advisors — the precise level of damage done to Iran’s nuclear sites and ballistic missile arsenal by the massive and historic airstrikes conducted by Israel and the United States last month.
ALL ISRAEL NEWS can report that senior U.S. and Israeli officials are very pleased with the magnitude of destruction inflicted on Iran’s military capabilities, confident that Iran’s nuclear threat has been neutralized — if not utterly eliminated.
Second, Trump and Netanyahu wanted to map out a series of strategies to shape a new Middle East — one that is peaceful and prosperous, secure for American and Israeli citizens, and that advances the vital national interests of both countries, as well as those of our Sunni Arab allies.
In this video — which I shot outside the White House — I explain the major questions the two leaders focused on. These include the topic of “regime change” and Iran’s future, liberating all 50 remaining Israeli hostages from Hamas captivity, winning the war in Gaza and rebuilding it, and brokering a new, historic, and game-changing set of peace and normalization agreements between Israel and a range of Arab and Muslim countries.
I also discuss what we know so far about how those conversations went.
And I explain the one topic the two leaders discussed that is creating significant anxiety for Netanyahu — as well as for many Evangelicals and Israelis.

A few hours after shooting the video, my wife, Lynn, and I sat down for an hour with Ambassador Mike Huckabee — the American envoy to Israel — to get his take.
We will publish that interview tomorrow on ALL ISRAEL NEWS.
The short version: While it’s true we didn’t see huge headlines emerge from the Trump-Bibi meetings this week, I have no doubt they’re coming.
And coming soon.
Stay tuned.
