Today, PM Netanyahu began his witness testimony in one of the fake trials against him. During his testimony, he spoke about his struggle to convince then president of the USA, Barak Obama not to support Iran and Turkey.
Netanyahu: "There were endless events. But the main thing I had to deal with - President Obama's entry into the White House. President Obama already in his first meeting with me in the White House made it clear to me that the policy of the United States was going to take an even sharper turn against the ideas I believed in.
He did two things: He turned to the Muslim world with great hope for reconciliation in his famous Cairo speech and specifically turned to Iran. He saw Iran not as a great threat but as a great opportunity - both Iran and Turkey, Muslim countries that grasp the future.
In relation to the State of Israel, he saw an essential need for us to return more or less to the lines of '67 and establish a Palestinian state here, and if we resolve this, everything in the Middle east would be resolved.
