The prime minster spoke of his meetings with the presidential candidates as well as recent comments made by former prime minster Ehud Barak.
Netanahu stated the he will not intervene in American politics and that both candidates are “well versed in Israeli affairs.”
“It is important for Israeli citizens to know no matter the election results we will have a friend in the White House. The next president will continue the strong alliance between Israel and the United States,” Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu continued, stating that the strong alliance between the two nations was seen with last week’s historic $38 billion military aid agreement and that it is important for the two countries to continue their alliance, working together on the challenges in the Middle East.
In the interview, Netanyahu also spoke about Ehud Barak’s recent criticism of the premier stating that, “Ehud Barak should not preach on how to run the country.”
Barak responded in a separate interview with Army Radio later Monday morning, stating, “History will judge the success of the prime minister, I am not afraid.”
“I wish that those who incited against [former prime minister Yitzhak] Rabin would focus on changing things for citizens instead of harassment,” Barak continued, “Personally I will continue working to open the eyes of the public to Netanyahu’s conduct.”
“My children and grandchildren motivate me, I worry about the country’s future.”
Netanyahu however stated that he was prepared to continue his job as long as he has something to contribute.
“We have made so many big changes, breaking into new markets, we formed an agreement with Japan for the protection of investments, we worked on special relations with Russia,” stated Netanyahu.
“We broke down the automatic block against us affecting our position in the United Nations,” Netanyahu continued, “I want to break down our isolation in the international arena.”
He already got a lesson from last time when he endorsed the looser mitt romny so now he dont take any chance, what a flip flop this bibi is, we all know he wont have respect of either of them.
I think he considers himself as the president of the US anyway.
He’s hoping it’s Trump who may be very good for Israel vs hateful Hillary who will for sure be bad for Israel like her twin Obama.
Netanyahu and his propaganda machine in the USA should leave out Jews in America of their dirty politics.
There are thousands and thousands of true torah Jews who want nothing to do with the state of Israel. Each time this Chutzpainic Netanyahu opens his mouth with statements regrading worldwide Jewry he causes antisemitism.
Anyone else notice that his chair is higher than Netanyahu’s? Kind of like the Queen’s is higher than anyone else’s. And, no, it’s not the angle of the picture. His chair was also higher than Pence’s during their 60 Minutes interview.
