ISRAELI Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, meeting in Jerusalem last Thursday with Jared Kushner, US president Donald Trump's son-in-law and the architect of the White House Middle East peace plan, tried to make light of the major political setback he had suffered on Wednesday.
"You know, we had a little event last night," he told Mr Kushner and Jason Greenblatt, another White House aide promoting the plan for reaching a deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians - the one President Trump has hailed as the "Deal of the Century".
Mr Netanyahu, sometimes referred to as Bibi, said of his political setback: "That is not going to stop us. We're going to continue working together."
