Israel, White House condemn Donald Trump's remarks

Oct 12 (Reuters) - Israel and the White House on Thursday condemned remarks by Donald Trump in which he praised the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah and criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over an attack by Palestinian Hamas militants that killed more than 1,300 people in Israel.

Trump, a former Republican president who is the frontrunner to become the party's 2024 presidential nominee, called the Lebanese Hezbollah, a sworn enemy of Israel, "very smart" and accused Netanyahu of being "not prepared" for the Hamas attack, which also killed 22 Americans.

recognition of Joe Biden as President in 2021, I also believe that Trump is a true contrarian. If Biden supports Bibi (and it's mutual), then Trump's against Bibi and Israel.

what everyone else has done and saying he would do it better. Of course, that has no bearing on reality!
