President Trump has been hailed as a “giant” and “a giant of Jewish history” and is the most deserving leader in history to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana said: “You, President Donald J. Trump, are a giant statue that will be immortalized in the temple of history thousands of years from now.”

He said: “There has not been a single person on this planet who has done more to promote peace than you. And no one has even come close. Your election to the presidency represents the turning point, not only for the United States, but for the entire world.”

“You have become one of the most important presidents in history. You have saved countless lives and they would not be lost without your leadership.”

He said that Israel will push for Trump to receive the Nobel Peace Prize next year.

“There is no one more deserving than you, President Trump,” he told the commander in chief.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Trump “the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House,” while profusely thanking the president for his help in reaching peace in Gaza and releasing all Israeli hostages.

“No American president has ever done more for Israel. “It’s not even close,” Netanyahu said.

“You have already been etched in human history,” the Prime Minister added. “Thank you, President Trump.”

The Israeli Prime Minister also praised Trump for his commitment to peace.

He told Trump: “You are committed to this peace, and I am committed to this peace.” “Together, Mr. President, we will achieve this peace.”

Netanyahu also said he had submitted his name for the Israel Prize — the country’s highest cultural honor — for his efforts to free the hostages.

“Mr. President. Thank you for everything you have done for us. You have submitted your nomination to be the first non-Israeli to receive the Israel Award. Israel’s highest award,” Trump told Trump as the Knesset erupted in applause.

Netanyahu then threw some shade at “the other prize,” referring to the Nobel Peace Prize, and told Trump it was “just a matter of time” until he won the prize.

The president and his team brokered the historic peace deal last week, in which Hamas agreed to release 20 hostages alive and return the remains of 28 others — captives who endured more than two horrific years in Gaza after being kidnapped from southern Israel during Hamas’ bloody Oct. 7, 2023, invasion.
