https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/trump-offers-rare-praise-hamas-and-threatens-iran-during-state-union(www.middleeasteye.net)During a State of the Union address, Donald Trump offered unusual praise for Hamas, stating the group worked with Israel on the "tough job" of retrieving the bodies of Israeli captives from Gaza. He claimed to have ended eight wars, including conflicts between Israel and Iran and the war in Gaza, which he said was proceeding at a "very low level." Trump credited his son-in-law Jared Kushner and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for negotiating the return of all Israeli captives, both living and deceased. The speech also drew heckles from Representatives Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, with Trump telling Omar she should be ashamed of herself.
