Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said Thursday he thinks President Obama hates Israel.

“I heard the beautiful name of IsraelIsrael is safe with this one,” Mr. Trump told supporters in Nevada. “Safe. Safe. So many friends in Israel. They don’t know what happened.”

“They have a president who — they actually think Obama hates Israel,” he said. “I think he does.”



Mr. Trump slammed the recently brokered Iran nuclear deal as “so bad” for Israel and “so dangerous.”

“Honestly, I think Israel’s in such a massive amount of trouble because of the agreement,” he said. “We will save Israel. Nothing — nothing bad is [going to] happen to Israel.”
