TRUMP: AMERICA'S FIRST ZIONIST PRESIDENT
Пра гэту аўдыякнігу
In Trump: America's First Zionist President, the author investigates Trump's endgame with Israel — and Trump's deep relationship with Christian Zionists.
During the redo 2019 election, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proclaimed: “Soon, the plan of the century will be presented by my close friend President Trump and the negotiations with President Trump will shape the future of Israel for generations to come. And because of this, Israel needs a strong and stable and Zionist government. A government that is committed to Israel as a national state for the Jewish people.”
Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump, converted to Judaism in 2009 in order to marry Jared Kushner, an Orthodox Jew from a prominent American Jewish family with close ties to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Kushner would become a senior advisor to President Trump, and influenced Trump’s decisions to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem and to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal — two things Israel vehemently wanted.
But does Kushner's influence alone explain Trump's all-out pro-Israeli policies? After all, Trump's foreign policy decisions pertaining to Israel upends a half-century of US policy.
To really understand Zionism, one must understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Therefore, the author examines the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in order to understand what the root causes really are. Is Israel right when it insists the land belongs to the Jewish people? Or, do the Palestinians really have a rightful claim to a state? And why does the United Nations invariably support the Palestinians?
