Netanyahu on meeting with Blinken: 'I said withholding weapons to Israel is inconceivable'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has released an English-language video in which he discusses his conversation with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during his visit to Israel.
"When Secretary Blinken was recently here in Israel, we had a candid conversation. I said I deeply appreciated the support the US has given Israel from the beginning of the war. But I also said something else; I said it's inconceivable that in the past few months, the administration has been withholding weapons and ammunitions to Israel," Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu told Blinken that Israel is America's closest ally who is "fighting for its life, fighting against Iran and our other common enemies."
The Prime Minister further relayed, "Secretary Blinken assured me that the administration is working day and night to remove these bottlenecks. I certainly hope that's the case. It should be the case. During World War II, Churchill told the United States, 'Give us the tools, we'll do the job.' '"A"d I say, give us the tools, and we'll finish the job a lot faster," Netanyahu said.
