00:00Prime Minister Netanyahu, thank you for joining us.
00:03To begin, we want to focus on the recent developments surrounding the latest deal with Hamas.
00:09Now, the deal comes close to exactly two years since the Hamas attack on the 7th of October.
00:15We might see the hostages freed on the same day they were taken two years ago.
00:21Is this what makes this a good deal for Israel?
00:25Well, we accepted the deal, as did all the world.
00:30It was President Trump's plan.
00:32Hamas says that it accepted the deal.
00:34Now the onus is on Hamas.
00:36This plan consists of two parts.
00:39The first part is releasing all the hostages.
00:41Israel makes a tactical withdrawal, stays in Gaza.
00:45And then the second part is meant to demilitarize Gaza and disarm Hamas.
00:53That will be negotiated.
00:55Prime Minister, just to follow up.
00:57So what happens if Hamas does not release the hostages?
01:00What will Israel do?
01:01How Israel will change its stance and the strategy?
01:05Of course, I can't tell you if Hamas will agree to it.
01:08I think that it's possible.
01:09I hope it will happen.
01:11But I can't guarantee that it will happen.
01:13And so if it doesn't happen, what President Trump has said is that he will back Israel completely
01:17in acting forcefully against Hamas.
01:20Well, let's hope that we can finish it the easy way and not the hard way.
01:26Prime Minister, Europe has been visibly absent from this process.
01:30Europe has been absent because Europe has basically caved in to Palestinian terrorism,
01:37to radical Islamist minorities in their midst.
01:40And they basically said, let's just give them a Palestinian state, which would be the ultimate
01:45reward for Hamas after doing the greatest massacre against the Jews since the Holocaust.
01:52Now we'll give you a state in which you can continue the war against Israel.
01:56That's why Europe has essentially become irrelevant and displayed enormous weakness.
02:02If you want to fight terror, stand up and fight terror.
02:06Stand up and be forceful against terrorism.
02:08Don't capitulate to its demands.
02:10Don't feed the crocodile, in Churchill's words, because it's going to come after you
02:14after it devours Israel or any other country.
