"The US and Israel enjoy a strong and enduring military-to-military partnership – one we’ve built upon trust developed over decades of cooperation," Gen. David Goldfein says.

Every action that his administration has taken stems from the understanding that the so-called “Israeli-Palestinian peace process” has failed repeatedly, not only as a result of being based on a false premise but of following the same old paradigm.

Prime Minister Netanyahu calls the Trump administration’s declaration, which stepped back from four decades of US policy and reversed the policies of President Barack Obama, a “huge achievement” that “fixed a historic wrong.” “I think it is a great day for the state of Israel and an achievement that will remain for decades,” he says.

“It is deplorable that the United Nations should be so often used by member states to treat one state in particular, Israel, unequally,” says Cherith Norman Chalet, Acting US Deputy Representative to the United Nations.

Following Tuesday's rocket attack on Israel from Syria, the IDF says its fighter jets hit multiple targets belonging to Iran's Quds force, including surface-to-air missiles, weapons warehouses and military bases. Defense Minister Naftali Bennett: "The rules have changed. Whoever shoots at Israel in the day, won't sleep at night."
