- Their leveling of villages in Southern Lebanon
- Their role in convincing Trump to strike Iran
- The soldier smashing the statue of Jesus
- The bombing of Syria
- The future of Hezbollah
- The future of Gaza and the West Bank
- Netanyahu calling soldiers who stuck a knife in an inmate’s rectum “heroic fighters
We agreed on some things, disagreed on others, but it was a rational conversation with a pragmatic leader, one that disagreed with the atrocities in Gaza, Lebanon and the West Bank
The thing we agreed the most on: NETANYAHU NEEDS TO GO!
PM Olmert was actually in Washington the day the war started, and I asked him a lot about the relationship between the U.S. and Israel, and how much influence Netanyahu has over Trump
It was a great conversation, I hope you enjoy it!
