The two leaders sat down with their top aides for a dinner in the White House Blue Room to mark the Iran operation and discuss efforts to push forward with a 60-day ceasefire proposal to pause the 21-month conflict in Gaza. \u201cHe\u2019s forging peace as we speak, one country and one region after the other,\u201d Netanyahu said as he presented Trump with a nominating letter he said he sent the Nobel committee. The call for the peace prize comes after the Israeli leader for years had pressed Trump and his predecessors to take military action against Iran\u2019s nuclear program. Trump ordered U.S. forces to drop \u201cbunker-buster\u201d bombs and fire a barrage of Tomahawk missiles on three key Iranian nuclear sites. It also allowed Netanyahu to further ingratiate himself with Trump, who for years has made little secret of the fact that he covets a Nobel Peace Prize and sees himself as a capable peacemaker. He\u2019s trumpeted recent truces that his administration facilitated between India and Pakistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, and Israel and Iran. \u201cComing from you in particular, this is very meaningful,\u201d Trump told Netanyahu as the prime minister handed him the nomination letter. Netanyahu\u2019s outwardly triumphant visit to the White House, his third this year, was dogged by Israel\u2019s war against Hamas in Gaza and questions over how hard Trump will push for an end to the conflict. But in an exchange before reporters before the dinner got underway, both leaders expressed optimism that their success in Iran would mark a new era in the Middle East. \u201cI think things are going to be really settled down a lot in the Middle East,\u201d Trump said. \u201cAnd, they respect us and they respect Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON(National Times)- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told President Donald Trump he was nominating the U.S. leader for a Nobel Peace Prize as the two took a victory lap Monday to hail their recent joint strikes on Iran \u2018s nuclear facilities as an unmitigated success.
