"PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Everybody loves Steve, and they respect him, and they somehow can relate to him. I've known him for many years, and I've seen it over - over and over again. KNESSET CHAIR: [speaking in Hebrew] KNESSET MEMBERS: Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump! PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: That was very efficient."
""Yesterday, there was a disgusting display of flattery and personality cult by two megalomaniacs who are hungry for power and blood," says Cassif. "This was a minimum protest against the policy of the genocidal government of Israel.""
As President Trump addressed the Israeli Knesset, two leftist lawmakers from the Hadash-Ta'al alliance, Ayman Odeh and Ofer Cassif, interrupted the speech while shouting and waving signs reading "Recognize Palestine." The two were briefly expelled from the chamber. Footage showed professor Rashid Khalidi's book, The Hundred Years' War on Palestine, on Cassif's desk as he sat before being ousted. Cassif called the leadership "megalomaniacs" and described the protest as a minimum response to what he called the policy of a genocidal Israeli government. Family members of 20 remaining released hostages welcomed loved ones home around the same time.
