Lapid made a speech last month to Israel's parliament, which is called the Knesset, that marked 600 days since the start of the war in Gaza. Lapid slammed Netanyahu for bringing a conflict upon Israel that didn't exist during his own brief time in office.

Netanyahu reveals Iran attempted to assassinate both him and Trump, discusses Israel's strikes against Iran's nuclear program, and explains the "imminent threat."

Donald Trump declared that, “for the first time in a thousand years, the world will look at this region not as a place of turmoil and strife, and war and death, but as a land of opportunity and hope.”

Netanyahu spoke after Trump earlier on Sunday called for a deal between the warring parties, saying “many calls and meetings” were now taking place that would lead to peace soon. “Iran and Israel should make a deal, and will make a deal,” he wrote on Truth Social.

Israelis have been rallying around the flag since the attacks began last week, even if not around Netanyahu himself.

During his second government, between 2009 and 2013, he tried at least twice to launch attacks against Iran’s nuclear programme but was stymied. He faced a series of obstacles. His generals and security chiefs opposed such a move.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will sit down for an interview airing Sunday with Fox News anchor Bret Baier, his first since Israel's strikes on Iran.
