Speaking to Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Netanyahu dismissed claims of a rift in U.S.-Israel ties. “I always hate to disappoint our would-be critics who are trying to find cracks in our alliance,” the premier said. “And what they find like today is a wall of granite.”

“We have a common commitment,” Netanyahu added. “We don’t want to see this fanatic regime in Tehran have nuclear weapons. We have a common goal, and it’s gonna be achieved.”
The roughly hour-long meeting was Netanyahu’s first face-to-face session with Trump since February, before the two countries’ joint military campaign against Iran. Netanyahu was also in Washington to attend the funeral of former Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who died on July 11.
