President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are meeting at the White House and holding a joint press conference Tuesday. It is the first foreign leader visit of Mr. Trump’s second term. The ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas, brokered in part by the U.S., continues to hold so far. Dual citizen Keith Siegel was the first American to be released since the implementation began last month, although other Americans have been released before. On Sunday, Netanyahu said he will discuss “victory over Hamas” with Mr. Trump, as well as countering Iran and building on diplomatic relationships with Arab nations. Mr. Trump told reporters on Monday that he has “no guarantees that the peace is going to hold.” The president told reporters Tuesday that he didn’t believe moving Palestinians from Gaza would be seen as forced displacement because he thinks they would “love to leave Gaza if they had an option.” Mr. Trump also referred to Gaza as a “demolition site,” and said Egypt and Jordan should accept some Palestinians, an idea he raised a few days ago. “Yeah, I’d like to see them take some,” he said.
