The IDF's practice has been to insist that only a representative of the military showed the film but in the case of the president, that practice was set aside and there will be no Israeli officials present during the screening.
Trump will see the clip, on Monday or Tuesday, likely before he is to beet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at 6 pm EST on Tuesday.
