US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee:

Do you like your cell phone? If you don't like Israel, get rid of your cell phone.

You would not have it without Israel.

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee:

Trump does not see things horizontally; he sees them vertically.

If a thing may work but it lands a little left of center, he may still go there.

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee:

Trump's daughter is Jewish, his grandchildren are Jewish, he has a son-in-law who is Jewish, a lot of his friends are Jewish, many of the people around him.

Nigeria’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, visiting Türkiye at the invitation of President Erdogan, tripped and fell on a carpet after the official welcome ceremony.

He’s fine.

The Doomsday Clock now stands at 85 seconds to midnight.

BREAKING: Syrian authorities and the SDF reportedly reached a framework deal with Mazloum Abdi.

Biden:

What has unfolded in Minneapolis this past month betrays our most basic values as Americans.

Turkish President Erdogan:

We stand with the people of Nigeria in their fight against terrorism.

Today, we evaluated opportunities for closer cooperation in the fields of military training and intelligence.

We stated that our country is ready to share its significant experience in counterterrorism.

Trump:

If Biden or Harris had won, I don’t think Israel would be around.

We knocked out the nuclear power — they would have used it if they had it.

The attack wouldn’t have taken place; instead, they would have been attacked.

Trump on Davos:

That was the best Davos they’ve ever had, probably.

Trump:

I had a great conversation with the highly respected President of Syria.

That area is working out very well; we are very happy about it.

Reporter: The President of Venezuela says she has stopped taking orders from you. What do you say?

Trump: I don't know exactly what's going on there, but I haven't heard that at all.

We have a very good relationship.

Trump:

Very good things are happening on Ukraine and Russia.

Reporter: Is Kristi Noem going to step down?

Trump: No.

Senator Graham backs down on Syria:

I recently spoke with Trump and Rubio, and I very much appreciate their efforts to bring stability to Syria.

It looks like Trump’s efforts have paid off, at least in the near term.

Neither the region nor the world needs another bloodbath in northeast Syria. To Trump and Rubio: well done.

First close-up image of China’s long-range PL-17 air-to-air missile (or its mock-up).

The PL-17 has been in service with the PLA Air Force since at least 2023, but until now it had only been seen in distant images carried under fighter aircraft.

Some estimates put its range at over 400 km, with an approximate length of more than 5.7 meters.

Netanyahu:

I am hearing now the statements that we will allow the reconstruction of Gaza before demilitarization. This will not happen.

I hear that we will bring in Turkish soldiers and Qatari soldiers into Gaza. This too will not happen.

I hear that I will allow the establishment of a Palestinian State in Gaza. This did not happen, and it will not happen.

Netanyahu:

Now we are focusing on completing the two remaining missions: disarming Hamas and the demilitarization of Gaza.

There are only two possibilities: either it will be done the easy way or it will be done the hard way.

But in any case, it will happen.

Netanyahu:

Israel will maintain security control from the Jordan River to the sea — and this applies to the Gaza Strip as well.

Netanyahu:

If Iran makes the grave mistake of attacking Israel, we will respond with a power that Iran has never seen before.

Netanyahu on Iran:

Trump will decide what he will decide. Israel will decide what we will decide.

We are prepared for any scenario.

If Iran makes the mistake and attacks us, it will be met with a response that it cannot even imagine.
