Former President Donald Trump delivered a grim warning during a rally on Saturday, declaring that Israel's fate would be dire should Kamala Harris become the next president. Trump's dire proclamation comes amidst escalating tensions in the Middle East, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemning Iran's "axis of evil" in the wake of a deadly terrorist attack on the West Bank-Jordan border crossing that claimed the lives of three Israelis.
On Saturday, former President Donald Trump took to the stage at a rally and issued a dire warning about the future of Israel if Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris wins the White House in November. Trump painted a bleak picture, asserting that Israel would be "doomed" if Harris were elected.

Trump's comments come against the backdrop of rising tensions in the Middle East, particularly between Israel and its neighbors. In a speech on Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denounced Iran's "axis of evil," accusing it of inciting and supporting terrorism in the region.
Netanyahu's condemnation followed a deadly terrorist attack at the West Bank-Jordan border crossing that killed three Israelis. The incident unfolded when a gunman approached the crossing from the Jordanian side in a truck and opened fire on Israeli security forces, who responded by killing the assailant in a shootout.

The victims of the attack were identified as Israeli civilians in their 50s. Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri hailed the attack as a success, connecting it to Israel's ongoing offensive in Gaza. He warned that more such actions could follow.
Netanyahu alleged that Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that controls Gaza, has a plan of action that involves sowing division within Israel and exerting external pressure on the Israeli government. He claimed that Hamas' ultimate goal is to defeat Israel.

The prime minister emphasized the importance of Israeli unity in the face of these challenges, stating that the country's enemies seek to divide it from within. He expressed confidence that Israel would prevail in its fight against terrorism and that Hamas' hostages would be returned safely.
The deadly attack at the border crossing has drawn international condemnation. Jordan, a Western-allied Arab country with a large Palestinian population, is investigating the incident. The Allenby crossing was closed until further notice, and Israel announced the closure of its two other land crossings with Jordan.

The Allenby crossing over the Jordan River is primarily used by Palestinians and international tourists, as well as for cargo shipments. It has witnessed few security incidents over the years. In 1994, Israel and Jordan signed a peace treaty.
Trump's warning about Israel's future if Harris wins the presidency reflects the complex geopolitical landscape of the Middle East. The ongoing tensions between Israel and its neighbors, combined with the recent terrorist attack, highlight the region's volatility and the need for a comprehensive and lasting peace.
