President Trump announced a proposal for Middle East peace alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday. The plan is merely a "suggestion," in the words of the president, who did not say on Monday whether there has been any coordination with Palestinians.
The president said both Netanyahu and his challenger, Benny Gantz, support the proposal, saying, "peace transcends politics." Mr. Trump told reporters during a meeting with Netanyahu on Monday that "it's a very big plan."
"It will be a suggestion between Israel and the Palestinians. It's the closest it's ever come," Mr. Trump said Monday. "We have support of the prime minister. We have the support of the other parties, and we think we will ultimately have support of Palestinians. But we're going to see. And if we do, it'll be a tremendous tribute to everybody. And if we don't, life goes on."

The president has tasked his son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner with developing much of the plan.
"If Jared Kushner can't do it, it can't be done," the president said of mending Israeli-Palestinian relations to the Israeli American Council in Florida in December.
The announcement comes shortly after Netanyahu was formally indicted, after requesting immunity.
The president's Middle East peace proposal comes as his lawyers are making their final arguments against removing him from office.
