Netanyahu fires back at Biden, Newsom

welcome back in a Fox News Alert the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority resigning yep setting up for a new government in the West Bank as war against America's greatest Ally in the mid East Israel still rages now Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined us live from Jerusalem with an update I guess the breaking news is this the cabinet Mr Prime Minister thanks for joining us has agreed to offer their resignation but mmud Abbas hasn't agreed to accept it if they do resign does th

at pave the way way for an acceptable two-state solution no well first of all I think that's musical chairs they haven't had an election in the Palestinian Authority for 17 years so they're just shuffling chairs uh but the real thing we want to see is genuine deradicalization they have to stop teaching their children to become terrorists they have to stop paying terrorists based on the amount of Jews they kill they have to stop teaching and indoctrinating a whole generation on the annihilation o

f Israel that's real reform that so far has not happened I hope it does happen but so far hasn't happened as far as the Palestinian state is concerned yes go ahead do the Palestinians want a two-state solution Mr Prime Minister well unfortunately I think that what they want is a is a one-state solution they don't want a state next to Israel they want a state uh instead of Israel and that's why uh I brought a resolution to the Kess our Parliament last week and 99 out of 120 it's actually 99 to9 b

ecause the rest abstained voted against the attempt to impose on Israel a Palestinian State now why did they do that because we've just had a Palestinian State a deao state Hamas in Gaza had a deao Palestinian State and what did they do with it Brian they use it to rape women behead Them Burn babies alive murder children in front of their parents and parents in front of their children took hostages that's the equivalent of 2911 in one day like 50,000 Americans butchered and th 10,000 held hostag

e including mothers and children babies that's that's what this state produced so naturally understand there's overwhelming support for my position it's not an outlier position it's not a fringe position the people of Israel are united as never before in saying that what we will not accept is a Palestinian state that will endanger Israel that's rewarding terrorism this will set against world of Book of Records on rewarding terrorists after they committed the most atrocious Savage against the Jew

ish people since the Holocaust so I want you to hear what governor Newsome said about your reluctance with this two Solution on everything you just outlined listen with regard to Benjamin Netanyahu who I've visited and I've worked with in the past he's doubling down on stupid as it relates to the two-state solution and walking away from that let's work to get these hostages home work to eliminate Hamas and rebuild Gaza and Advance a two-state solution are you doubling down on stupid well look I

I met the governor when he was here uh and I hope he had a chance to tour the country because then he would have seen that uh this is not my personal position it's the position of the people of Israel they're not stupid they understand that you just offer a Palestinian state is to give a platform for the repeated attempts to uh annihilate the Jewish State and Hamas has already promised that if it has if it's reconstituted if Israel doesn't win the war then they'll do this October 7th Massacre ov

er and over and over again their words so I don't think the people of Israel are stupid I think they're actually very smart that's why they support my position in achieving total Victory uh defeating Kamas bringing back the hostages and making sure that Gaza doesn't pose a threat to Israel again and that means that Israel will have to have the overriding security control over that territory for the foreseeable future that doesn't come with uh unlimited Palestinian sovereignty I think I think the

people are smart does the President Biden that hugged you after October 7th resemble the same one that seems upset with you now saying your reaction in Gaza has been over the top what's your reaction to the seemingly withering support from this Administration look I appreciate the president's support uh at the beginning of the war and throughout we've had our differences of opinion but we've been able to agree on uh you know on the three War aims destroying k bringing back the hostages uh and u

h making sure that Gaza is not a threat to Israel but I think that there are natural differences of opinion I can tell you one thing though you know I just came out of a meeting with Colonel John Spencer John Spencer is the world expert on Urban Warfare he heads the urban Warfare department in West Point uh and he's compared what Israel is doing uh in trying to fight these terrorists who not only systematically target ter civilians but hide behind their civilians he said that there is no other A

rmy that is in the world that has gone to the lens that Israel has gone to to prevent civilian casualties uh and and he's right uh so I don't think our reaction is over the top I think the Israeli Army is setting the gold standard of how to fight terrorist embedded in civilian neighborhoods in hospitals in schools and yet minimize the uh the ratio of uh civilian casualties and I'll tell you every civilian casualty is a tragedy and they're all they should all be brought to the doorstep of Kamas t

hat is using them as human Shields I want you to hear what Jake Sullivan just warned you guys about he knows you're going to go into Rafa he warns you you better not go in without a plan to get the civilians out listen talking about more than a million people who have been pushed into this small space in Gaza because of military operations elsewhere it's also the area where all of the humanitarian assistance comes into Gaza to serve all of Gaza and so we've been clear that we do not believe that

an operation a mil major military operation should proceed in Rafa unless there is a clear and executable plan to protect those civilians to get them to safety and to feed clothe and house them and we have not seen a plan like that have you heard this plan since he said that yesterday and have the Americans been briefed on your plan well actually um last night I had a meeting with the general staff and the security cabinet and the the Army showed us the plan a double plan one for the evacuation

and humanitarian caring assistance of the civilian population in Rafa uh and second the elimination of the remaining uh quarter roughly of the Hamas terrorist battalions that are in Rafa we wouldn't we can't leave them uh there because that's like leaving a a quarter of Isis in place in a defined territory you wouldn't do that and in fact you didn't do it so uh we're not going to do that either but we do have a combined plan of evacuating civilians out of Harm's Way uh and destroying those batt

alions I can tell you that Hamas will be doing everything in their power to make sure that we don't Evacuate the civilians because they actually try to stop them at gunpoint and often at gunfire but that's not going to stop us we won't give them immunity we'll get the population out we'll continue the job to achieve total Victory total Victory is how you win the war and total Victory is how you win the peace you can't win the peace if you don't win the war I know you're taking out 18 of 24 Hamas

battalions but they said you've only taken out 30% of Hamas hups many are hiding in the tunnels uh if America tells you don't go into Rafa will you go in anyway well we'll go in we make our own decisions obviously but we'll go in based on the idea of having also the evacuation of the civilians by the way the the I agree with the us on this I don't have a a different position because our strategy right now has always been from the beginning to try to get civilians out of Harm's Way and we've bee

n largely successful the ratio of civilians to combatants killed in Gaza uh is now down below one to1 which is just unheard of in this kind of crowded Urban Warfare but again we'll do our best to get as many of them out they'll have the opportunity to leave that's not an American uh position that's my position I understand too the one of the big stories and that everyone cares most about especially the Americans no offense are the hostages you have over 130 uh on Behind Enemy Lines what could yo

u tell us about those talks in Cutter the word is according to us officials the basic Contours of a deal uh are agreed upon would you describe it the same way well I hope so I think I think we're there I'm not sure Hamas is there they have what I'd call outlandish demands that's like in another orbit another planet they have to come down to reality uh and I think that if that's the case we'll we'll be able to have a deal we certainly want it I want it uh look we've already been able to free uh h

alf the hostages uh which is uh a singular achievement but we want the remainder too and I've devoted my life ever since I was a young uh commander in a in a special unit I myself was wounded in an attempt to release uh hostages from a hijacked uh Sabina aircraft my brother my older brother was killed at the rate of while leading the storming party at the rate of anbe which released 103 uh Jewish hostages uh and we're totally committed we just had a heroic operation in which we released two host

ages we just took them out of the jaws of the terrorists so obviously we want this uh deal if we can have it uh it depends on Hamas it's really now their decision because I think uh I think the ground has been laid but they have to enter the they have to enter the ballpark they're not they're not in town yet only 30 seconds left I understand uh efforts have been stepped up against hezb in the north do you believe war with hezbo is inevitable or closer now than it was before Hamas attack on Octob

er 7th heah attacked us on October 8th a day after the Kamas Massacre uh and we've been exchanging blows ever since uh our goal is to bring back 100,000 people who left the border with Lebanon with heah uh Israelis who want to go back to their homes if this can be achieved uh diplomatically fine if not it'll be achieved militarily my preference is to achieve it diplomatically but I can't tell you that uh that will cooperate in any case we'll get these people back to their homes and we hope to ha
