So Netanyahu told Jeffrey Goldberg...

that he was not concerned about a first strike, that his only concern was that talented young Israelis would move to Miami, that there would be a brain drain.

That was his words, a brain drain from Israel.

And that also then Hezbollah, as this is what he put it, and I agree with this, that conventional forces would have a bit more freedom of action in the region if Iran was sitting on an A-bomb.

Neither of them.

Said that there was a threat of an offensive first strike against Israel.

And I would point out and I'm skipping ahead to Trump, but I'm skipping back here again in a second because I got more things to refute.

But Trump just said the other day when he announced American airstrikes there that this has neutralized a threat to Israel.

He did not even pretend that it was a threat to the United States that he had ended in doing so.

Actually, he said exactly that.

Actually, you can Google the statement.

Not in the statement where he announced his great victory in bombing, which is what I just said, right?

So then he had this whole thing about how I always believe Hezbollah and I always believe the Ayatollah.

When in fact, I did not quote the Ayatollah.

And I did not quote Hezbollah on anything.

I did quote Osama bin Laden taking responsibility for the Gopar Towers attack, which he shared that with Abdelbari Atwan.

Anyone can read it.

And he agrees with Michael Schroyer, the former chief of the CIA's bin Laden unit, who also said that it was a hoax, that it was Iranian-backed Saudi Hezbollah that did that attack.

And again, who did they attack?

They killed 19 American airmen, which was the number one complaint of al-Qaeda against the United States, that we had air forces and armies stationed in Saudi Arabia in order to bomb and blockade Iraq, which, again, and this was the thing that you had asked about before, was part of the dual containment policy in the 1990s.
