As Israel Observes The 77th Anniversary Of The Jews Being Gathered Back To The Holy Land In 1948, President Trump Meets With Their Enemies In Qatar

President Donald Trump arrived Wednesday in Qatar, where he was greeted by the country’s ruling emir, Sheikh Tamim Al Thani, as he kicked off the second leg of his three-nation Middle East tour this week. What about Israel?

On this date in history 77 years ago, NTEB told you how US President Harry S. Truman formally and officially announced that America had recognized the fledgling state of Israel to exist as a nation. In the same year we wrote that article, 2017, we also called for then-president Donald Trump to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Trump would go on to do that officially on December 6th of the same year. So here we are in 2025, and on the May 14th anniversary of the recognition of Israel’s right to exist, President Donald Trump is meeting with their enemies in Qatar, accepting a $400 million dollar “gesture of goodwill” bribe from the terror-supporting nation. That’s the memo.

“And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.” Isaiah 11:12 (KJB)

OH, I know, I get it, you’ll tell  me that Donald Trump is playing 5-D chess with the Muslims, and secretly working behind the scenes to advance the best interests of the Jewish state, and accomplish for them what they cannot for themselves. True? Possibly. But optics being what they are, to have an American president flying to visit a declared enemy of Israel on the very day Israel became a nation back in 1948, that’s not 5-D chess. Why couldn’t Trump make a quick stop in Israel today, or yesterday, or tomorrow? Because that would anger his Muslim buddies who, at the moment, at throwing piles of cash at him. That’s why. The “art of the deal” isn’t turning out to be much of a deal for Israel.

Trump is in Qatar after meeting Syria’s new leader in Saudi Arabia

FROM THE UNION-BULLITEN: In a stunning engagement earlier in the day in Saudi Arabia, Trump met with Syria’s new leader, Ahmad al-Sharaa — who as an insurgent had spent years imprisoned by U.S. troops in Iraq. Trump said the rapprochement with Syria came at the urging of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

“There is a new government that will hopefully succeed,” said Trump, who announced he’ll move to lift sanctions on Syria to give the country “a chance at peace.”

“I say good luck, Syria. Show us something special,” Trump said.

In Saudi Arabia, Trump focused on dealmaking with the kingdom, a key Mideast ally. Trump and Prince Mohammed, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, signed a host of economic and bilateral agreements. Trump also touched on shared concerns about the war in Gaza and Iran’s nuclear program. Trump said he wants to avoid conflict with Tehran, urging Iran to take a “new and a better path” as he pushes for a new nuclear deal.

When he was president the first time, Donald Trump declared plainly that “Qatar is a funder a terrorism and must be stopped”. He was right. So why now here in his second term is he accepting multimillion dollar “gifts” from those very same people? pic.twitter.com/lEPq61dfbc

On his flight from Saudi Arabia, Air Force One was escorted by Qatari F-15 jets, according to a post on X by White House official Margo Martin. It was a repeat of Tuesday’s escort by Saudi Arabian fighter jets, which was a high-profile move without recent precedent.

Trump was greeted at the airport by Qatar’s emir Sheikh Tamim Al Thani. Both leaders then walked down a receiving line of representatives from each country at the Amiri Diwan, the government palace. The ceremonial greeting also included an escort of riders on camelback.

While Al Thani shook hands with U.S. officials, he had a warmer greeting for Steve Witkoff, Trump’s envoy who has played a key role in Middle East negotiations. They clasped hands and pulled each other in for an embrace. Trump then sat down briefly with Al Thani and marveled at the government palace.

“As a construction person, I’m seeing perfect marble,” said the former real estate developer. He described it as “perfecto.” READ MORE
