The cavalcade was predictable. Kushner would arrive, a brief video of Netanyahu nod him before their assembly – and maybe a few harmless comments during a start of a assembly – would be expelled to a press, along with a concise matter that a dual discussed a segment and a strength of shared ties.
On Monday, in an denote that if a new epoch had not accurately dawned, it was peeping by a lattice, Kushner combined another caller on his agenda: Blue and White conduct Benny Gantz. And, as was always a slight with Netanyahu, a brief video of a dual jolt hands – yet this one was boundless – was sent out to a press, as good as a really brief statement.

And even if this was not Kushner’s intent, a assembly itself done Gantz demeanour – during slightest in a boundless video – “prime ministerial.”
Following a encounter, that took place during a US Embassy in Jerusalem’s apparatus on Agron Street, a US group went adult a highway to a Prime Minister’s Office for a assembly with Netanyahu. There, too, a embassy expelled a brief video, this one display Kushner hugging Netanyahu – he usually gave Gantz a handshake – and a brief matter acknowledging a assembly took place and observant that Netanyahu was assimilated by National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat and Israel’s Ambassador to a US Ron Dermer.
The Prime Minister’s Office put out a accurate same calm and pictures.
No information of a calm of that assembly was released.
In further to their meetings with Gantz and Netanyahu, a US group also paid a revisit Monday to a Western Wall.
