00:00President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a series of meetings over

00:04the last couple of days. A lot is being made about the victories that both men achieved in Iran.

00:10Had we not succeeded with that hit, that hit ended the war. This ended that with the war.

00:16If we didn't take that out, they would have been, they'd be fighting right now.

00:19The nation of Iran and the nation of Israel have been true friends since the days of Cyrus the Great.

00:24And the time has come for you to unite around your flag and your historic legacy

00:31by standing up for your freedom from an evil and oppressive regime.

00:37I am really struck by the fact that these two men seem to be actively trying to remake the Middle East.

00:43We're talking not just about putting Iran in a corner. We're not just talking about peace with Syria.

00:49We're talking about relocation of Gazans. We're talking about ending all the conflicts

00:55and trying to put the Middle East on a different path. This is an incredibly ambitious undertaking.

01:01The two men have together a terrific head start. But I think a lot of this, the devil's going to be

01:07in the details. What they work out over the next couple of weeks to a couple of months could prove

01:13incredibly consequential for a region that has really been seen as a basket case over the years.

01:19But maybe, just maybe, over the last couple of months, some of these major events that have transpired,

01:24we could be putting the Middle East on a different course.

01:27The Prime Minister of Israel actually submitted a recommendation that Donald Trump be nominated

01:32for a Nobel Prize.

01:33So I want to present to you, Mr. President, the letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee.

01:39It's nominating you for the Peace Prize, which is well-deserved, and you should get it.

01:46Thank you very much. This I didn't know.

01:48It may be a little bit premature, but I got to tell you, if they continue down this path

01:53and continue to achieve some success, it may not be out of the question.
