The Israeli Prime Minster gave the unique gift to Don during a visit at the White House, a nod to the deadly pager attack on Hezbollah in September.

The golden bleeper comes with instructions to “press with both hands” and even has a message for Netanyahu’s “greatest friend.”

Text on the pager’s screen reads: “Press with both hands.”

While a small placard on the bottom says: “To President Donald J. Trump, our greatest friend and greatest ally.

“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.”

Trump thanked Netanyahu for the unusual offering and praised the “grand” operation.

In return, the US President gave the Israeli PM of the two of them inscribed: “To Bibi, a great leader.”

Netanyahu’s office said the gift “symbolizes the Prime Minister’s decision that led to a turning point in the war and the starting point for breaking the will of the terrorist organization Hezbollah.

The operation “expresses the power, technological superiority and cunning of Israel against its enemies.”

After the gift had changed hands the US President presented his controversial scheme to transform the Gaza strip into the “Riviera of the Middle East”.

The Republican said the US could take over Gaza and 2 million Palestinians would be relocated to Egypt and Jordan.

He vowed he would turn it into “something the entire Middle East can be very proud of.”

September’s attack on Hezbollah saw hundreds of pagers and walkie talkies used by the terrorists across Lebanon exploding simultaneously.

The booby-trapped devices blew up simultaneously in a brazen operation that was years in the making.

The assault killed dozens and left thousands injured following coordinated blasts in Lebanon.

Weeks later Israel revealed it had been forced to launch the deadly attack early over fears the plot had been discovered by Hezbollah.

In December Israeli intelligence agents later revealed how they pulled off the calculated attacks.

Speaking at a documentary for CBS 60 Minutes, former Mossad agents revealed the operation started a decade ago using walkie-talkies laden with hidden explosives, which Hezbollah didn’t realize it was buying from Israel.

Israel triggered the attack on September 17, when pagers all over Lebanon started beeping.

Users were instructed to push two buttons simultaneously for an incoming encrypted message – but the devices would explode even if the person failed to push the buttons.

The next day, Mossad activated the walkie-talkies,in a fresh attack declaring a “new phase of war.”
