Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised President Donald Trump on Wednesday for his plan to take over the Gaza Strip.

“This is the first good idea that I’ve heard,” Netanyahu said during a Fox News interview with Sean Hannity. “It’s a remarkable idea, and I think it should be really pursued, examined, and done because I think it will create a different future for everyone.”
