Dr. Hagi Ben Artzi calls Trump’s proposed Gaza refugee relocation a “messianic mission” and presses Netanyahu to seize this historic, divine opportunity to resolve Israel’s 77-year crisis.
“A Mission from Heaven”: Netanyahu’s Brother-in-Law Says Trump May Be ‘Mashiach ben David’ Sent to Solve Israel’s Refugee Crisis
In a sweeping spiritual and political declaration, Dr. Hagi Ben Artzi, renowned historian, Bible scholar, and brother-in-law to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has hailed former U.S. President Donald Trump as a man with a “messianic mission” to resolve the Palestinian refugee crisis—a problem that has plagued Israel since its founding in 1948.
Speaking to Arutz Sheva – Israel National News, Ben Artzi did not mince words:
“Trump is the first world leader in 77 years willing to confront the root of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict—the refugee problem. And his proposal to relocate Gaza’s population abroad is nothing short of revolutionary.”
🗝️ Trump: A Modern-Day Cyrus?
Ben Artzi likened Trump’s vision to the biblical King Cyrus of Persia, who was called a “messiah” for enabling the Jewish return to Zion.
“Rabbi Kook saw Lord Balfour as an agent of Divine Providence. Now it’s Trump’s turn. The numerical value of ‘Donald Trump’ in Hebrew even matches ‘Mashiach ben David’—Messiah son of David. We cannot ignore the signs.”
🧭 A Plan Beyond Politics: Refugee Relocation
At the heart of this vision is Trump’s unprecedented plan to resettle Gaza’s refugees in other countries—ending the cyclical violence and removing the threat of the Palestinian “right of return,” which Ben Artzi called “an existential threat to the Jewish state.”
“This isn’t fringe talk. This is a U.S. President with global authority, saying the unthinkable out loud: it’s time to end the refugee crisis by moving people out of Gaza and into nations willing to help.”
🕊️ A Message for Bibi: Don’t Miss This Divine Moment
Ben Artzi didn’t stop with praise for Trump—he issued a direct appeal to Prime Minister Netanyahu, urging him not to let this “divinely orchestrated opportunity” slip away.
“The war against Hamas is necessary—but not enough. Trump has given us a bigger vision: to solve the root problem of 1948. This is your mission, Bibi. History and Heaven are watching.”
He called on Netanyahu to see himself as a vessel of divine destiny:
“You’ve been given a sacred responsibility. If you rise to it, history will remember you as the leader who resolved Israel’s greatest existential challenge. Do not miss your moment.”
🌍 Why It Matters:
- Trump’s proposed plan includes relocating Gaza’s refugee population internationally
- Plan could neutralize the Palestinian “right of return”
- Dr. Ben Artzi frames this as a divine and historic solution to a 77-year conflict
- Pressures Netanyahu to move beyond defeating Hamas and take strategic control of Gaza
- Compares Trump to Cyrus the Great and Lord Balfour—gentiles viewed in Jewish tradition as “messengers of redemption”
