00:00On Benjamin Netanyahu's American tour, Friday saw him board a plane to Florida, where Republican
00:06challenger Donald Trump was waiting for him.
00:09Anxious to remedy the appearance of strained relations between the two men after the Prime
00:14Minister was quick to congratulate President Biden on his victory in 2020.
00:19No president has done what I've done for Israel and we've always had a very good relationship.
00:26Also taking the opportunity to condemn the presumptive Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris.
00:32She's really a destroyer. She has an eye to build. I think her remarks were disrespectful.
00:40They weren't very nice pertaining to Israel.
00:43The Vice President and contender for the White House also received the Prime Minister on
00:48Wednesday and debriefed her meeting with a message to voters.
00:53It is time to get this deal done. So to everyone who has been calling for a ceasefire and to
01:00everyone who yearns for peace, I see you and I hear you.
01:06Two days later from Donald Trump's opulent Mar-a-Lago estate, Netanyahu suggested that
01:11any American criticism of Israel could hinder a ceasefire deal.
01:15Well we're trying to get one and I think to the extent that Hamas understands that there's
01:23no deal between Israel and the United States, that expedites the deal. And I hope that those
01:33comments don't change that.
01:36Protests have followed the Israeli Prime Minister throughout his US tour. This is the death
01:41toll of Israel's war in Gaza, top 39,000.
