In a moment of deep symbolism and unity, Air Force One landed in Israel to a powerful blessing, as Trump and Netanyahu shared an unprecedented ride to the Knesset.
The skies above Ben Gurion Airport thundered with emotion as Air Force One entered Israeli airspace — greeted not merely by radar, but by reverence.
“Welcome to the State of Israel, Mr. President. Your visit carries deep meaning for our people in this time. Thank you for your friendship and the unbreakable bond between our nations. God bless America and God bless Israel,” declared the voice from the Ben Gurion control tower, echoing across the tarmac and into history.
As the iconic blue-and-white aircraft rolled to a halt, President Donald J. Trump stepped onto Israeli soil, greeted with full honors by President Isaac Herzog and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The crowd’s applause, the fluttering Israeli and American flags, and the solemn sense of destiny merged into one electric moment.
Then came a rare gesture that broke every diplomatic protocol — and made headlines across the world.
Prime Minister Netanyahu and his wife, Sara, were personally invited to board Trump’s armored presidential limousine, “The Beast.” Together, the two leaders — flanked by their spouses — departed from the airport toward the Knesset in Jerusalem, in what officials called “a ride of alliance, faith, and victory.”
The sight of Trump and Netanyahu side by side in the Beast was more than symbolic. It was the living image of the American-Israeli covenant — tested by terror, sealed by faith, and reaffirmed by triumph.
For a nation emerging from two years of war and heartbreak, the arrival of President Trump was more than a state visit — it was a homecoming of friendship, power, and divine purpose.
