There should be no more attacks by Israel anywhere in Lebanon, but there should also be no more attacks by any other party, including Hezbollah, against Israel.

The Strait of Hormuz will be completely opened on Friday.

The Iran deal we made is going to bring a lot of, a lot of success to the world, because the oil was really clogged up there for a while.

Hopefully, it's going to be a good relationship, and we're going to get along. If we don't, we go back to where we started. But I don't think that's going to be necessary.

I'm not happy with the way Israel has handled themselves with Lebanon and with Hezbollah.

The deal with Iran is now complete.

And the strait is already partially opened.

The deal's all signed.

And maybe we'd take back Washington and run it on the federal basis,

I suggested to Israel to let Syria take care of Hezbollah, because to be honest with you, I think they'd do a better job of doing it.

Too many people are being killed, and you don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you're looking for somebody, because there are a lot of people in those apartment houses, and they're not all Hezbollah, that I can tell you.

Without us, without the United States, there would be no Israel. Without me, there would be no Israel, because no other president was willing to do what I did.

It was "vicious," saying it was "too much."

I didn't like where two hours before we're signing the agreement that there was an attack in Lebanon, in Beirut.

Netanyahu "has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon."

It just goes on forever. And when that happens, it throws a negative light on the big deal.

They should have been able to deal with them faster.

So, yeah, I'm going to do whatever I can.

Hopefully it’s going to be a good relationship and we’re going to get along.

Hezbollah we have to have a little talk with them.

Because if Iran had a nuclear weapon, Israel wouldn’t be around for two hours.

Iran has now agreed to a ceasefire and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

And that’s a mini version of what we were doing, but it should not be tough.

We do want to see if we can straighten out the Lebanon thing because it just seems to just never end.

Netanyahu is a difficult guy who should be very thankful to us for doing this, because if Iran had a nuclear weapon, then Israel wouldn’t be around for two hours.
