Now back here in jerusalem. A beautiful historic city and a complicated and troubled land and tonight President Trump is here calling for peace and getting a receptive ear as the face of a new american approach in the region. The president welcomed with full honors upon landing early today in tel aviv directly from saudi arabia. That flight was part of a historymaking day that took the president to the heart of old jerusalem and a sacred site no sitting u. S. President has visited before. Mr. Trump also made news with offhanded remarks that immediately refocused to troubles he hoped to leave at home. Chief White House CorrespondentHallie Jackson has our report. Here in israel, showered with praise by Benjamin Netanyahu, a striking contrast to form er president obamas welcome. And that wasnt the only difference. A moment of silence marking history at the western wall. Donald trump the first sitting u. S. President to visit the holy site, along with his family. The symbolic step, part of a tightly choreographed visit with the president sticking to the script, mostly. Never mention the word israel. Those off the cuff comments coming after the president was pressed about reports he shared sensitive intelligence gathered by israelis in this Oval Office Meeting with russian officials. With officials. I never mentioned the word or the name israel. Never mentioned it. Theyre all saying i did. So you have another story wrong. But the president is denying something no one accused him of. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu brushing it off. The two leaders and longtime friends on a first name basis. Donald. B. B. , thank you. Evidence everywhere of their warm relationship. We understand each other. To israelis, it also helps donald trump is not barack obama. I want you to know how much we appreciate the change in american policy on iran. That tough talk against iran central to the president s middle east message. There is a growing realization among your arab neighbors that they have common cause with you in the threat posed by iran. Similar language in saudi arabia this weekend in a speech to more than 50 arab leaders. For decades, iran has fueled the fires of sectarian conflict and terror. In riyadh, the Royal Treatment for trump and tel aviv, the red carpet rolled out, open arms for a president embattled at home looking for a win and hoping to find one overseas. Hallie jackson, nbc news, jerusalem. This is Andrea Mitchell in jerusalem. President trump dining with the netanyahus and tackling middle east peace, learning on the job. Ive heard its one of the toughest deals of all. Reporter realizing that a peace deal is harder than he thought only a few weeks ago. Its a something i think is frankly maybe not as difficult as people have thought over the years. Reporter on a trip filled with symbols, holy sites, royal welcome, sword dances, and a glowing orb, it is still a challenge just to get israelis and palestinians talking to each other. Instead today, anger in israel over a palestinian protest. The hostility decades deep on both sides. Today there was a strike to support palestinians in jail for killing israelis . Give me a break. You cannot. You cannot seek peace when you support terror. What they are trying to do is forge an agreement that will simply be shoved down the throats of palestinians. Reporter and donald trump with a new approach, hoping stronger relations with israel can produce small steps toward peace with the palestinians, not the comprehensive deal envisioned by past president s of both parties. If he can generate hope, thats a good thing. If he raises expectations and then they are disappointed, weve seen before that can lead to a real setback and more violence. Reporter and then fundamental to the trump vision, isolating iran and opposing its newly reelected president rouhani who a former chief says he wants reform. I think rouhani is a symbol of a chance, an option for change in iran. Reporter before leaving tomorrow, President Trump will go to bethlehem in the west bank and meet with the palestinian leader. A very brief meeting again, more symbol than substance. Lester . Andrea mitchell, thank you.
