NOT GOOD: Trump Hasn’t Accepted Invite To Meet Netanyahu In US, Might Not Talk With Him At All


A report by Politico has cast doubt on the possibility of a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Republican US presidential nominee Donald Trump during Netanyahu’s visit to the United States.

According to the report, which cites two unnamed sources familiar with the details, Trump has not rejected the idea of a meeting outright but has yet to agree to it. One source noted that if a meeting were to take place, it likely would not happen before Trump’s rally in North Carolina on Thursday evening.

This would leave Friday as the only remaining day for the meeting, but Netanyahu not openly defiling Shabbos while in the US could complicate matters. To not violate Shabbos, Netanyahu and his entourage would need to stay in the US until Saturday night, potentially extending their trip.

The Kan public broadcaster had previously reported that Netanyahu’s team was seeking a sit-down with Trump, but the Politico report suggests that the meeting is far from certain.

  1. Can someone give me some background here. Why is Netanyahu concerned about meeting on shabbos? I didn’t think he cared.

    If someone can give me some context I would appreciate it.

  2. Since zionism is opposite of Torah, they only care about Shabbos outside of Israel….

    But, give credit where it’s due…..

  3. Remember the story that one of the the original excuses for spying on Trump and on Michael Flynn in particular was alleged violation of the “Logan Act” simply for talking (even when Trump was already President elect) to Putin. There is nothing to stop these Democrats from using the Logan Act if Trump dares talk to a foreign leader.

  4. The truth is the Trump will behave however it is that he perceives is best for HIMSELF. This is his motivation, and guiding principal.

    It would be better for us to put our trust in the Rebono Shel Olam

    אשרי הגבר אשר שם ה מבטחו ולא פנה אל רהבים ושטי כזב

  5. Israel had a tradition that Prime Ministers don’t openly violate shabbos, unless there is pikuach nefesh on the line.

  6. We have Mamala Kamala not coming to Bibi’s addressing the Congress and we have Trump not appearing too anxious to meet with Bibi. We can’t trust any of the candidates to be very supportive of Israel, no matter what their past history has shown. As maskildoresh stated earlier, Hashem is making it very obvious to us that we have always had only Hashem to rely on.

  7. @Happy New Year,
    You’re 100% right that “give credit where it’s due “.
    That would be the Gedoilei Yisroel (of Agudas Yisroel) who held to negotiate and work WITH the (freiya )Zionists.
