[The Paragon of Speaking, Learning, Teasing, and Singing: Netanyahu's Interaction with Trump]

On April 8th, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted on Facebook before departing from Washington at the end of his trip:

"I am about to conclude my second visit to the U.S. within two months. This was a very friendly visit, during which I had a cordial meeting with my friend, President Donald Trump."

You may have noticed the depth of our friendship and camaraderie, which is reflected in the topics we discussed.

Firstly, the issue of Iran. We both agree that Iran should not possess nuclear weapons. This can be achieved through an agreement, but it must follow the Libyan model: sending people into Iran to destroy relevant facilities, dismantle all equipment—and this must be done under American supervision by Americans. This is a feasible approach.

The second scenario is if no agreement can be reached. If they continue to delay negotiations, then only military options remain. Everyone understands this. We discussed this in detail.

We also discussed the Gaza issue. We are determined to eliminate Hamas and ensure the safe return of all our hostages.

The president looked at me and said to the reporters, "This person has been working hard for the release of hostages." I hope these words will dispel the rumors that have been circulating, saying that I do not work for the release of hostages or that I do not care.

I certainly care. I have been working on it, and we will succeed.

We also talked about President Trump's vision, as we maintain contact with some countries discussing the possibility of receiving a large number of Gaza residents. This is important because ultimately, this is how things should proceed.

The third topic was Turkey. Turkey wants to establish a military base in Syria, which poses a threat to Israel. This is something we cannot accept, and we are taking action against it. I told President Trump—he is my friend and also a friend of Erdogan's—'If we need your help, we will ask you for it.'

Lastly, the fourth topic was tariff issues. President Trump demanded that all countries reduce their trade deficits with the U.S. to zero. I told him, 'For us, this isn't too difficult. We will manage it.' This is the least we can do for the U.S. and for Mr. President, given all he has done for us.

This was a very successful visit, and the atmosphere was very friendly. There are other matters as well, and you will hear more news about them later."
