Of course, the prime minister is going to listen to President Trump.

Now, what happens in two and a half years' time with an anti-Israel president or a president who's more conciliatory towards Iran?

Do I think they'll be on that leash?

Certainly, that leash will not be as tight and will not be as effective.

But for two and a half years, absolutely.

And from a negotiating perspective, it really helps President Trump to have the pit bull on the leash to say to the Iranians, look...

You have a choice.

You agree or I'm going to unleash them.

And by the way, I'm not going to just unleash them.

I'm going to join them.

And therefore, take your pick.

And when I join them and they're unleashed, there is a risk that we're going to bring down your regime.

No, I don't think they take it for granted.

I mean, I think that, you know, there's a possibility that Marco Rubio becomes president of the United States.

There's a possibility, I'm not sure, I'm not a political analyst, that maybe Josh Shapiro wins the Democratic nomination or that a sort of normal, like normal president emerges who says, look, we have a complicated relationship with our Israeli ally.

They're a difficult ally, but not only do we believe in their right to exist, but we believe that they're an important partner and we're gonna work with them.

And we have disagreements with them on the West Bank and settlers, and we have disagreements on this and that.

I think we can get a normal president who has that kind of relationship with Israel because we've had those kinds of presidents in modern American history.

And I think there's a possibility we still will.

I do think the Israelis are deeply worried
