## Transcript

As far as settlements, I would like to see you hold back on settlement for a little bit. We'll works something out but I would like to see it a deal be made, I think a deal will be made. I know that every president would like to, most of them have not started [ UNKNOWN ] because they never thought it was possible and it wasn't possible. Because they didn't do it. But [ UNKNOWN ] and I have known each other a long time, a smart man, great negotiator. And I think we're gonna make a deal. It might be a bigger and better deal than people in this room even understand, that's a possibility. I am looking at a two state and a one state And I like the one that both parties like.

[ LAUGH ] I'm very happy with th one that both parties like. I can live with either one, I thought for a while the two state looked like it maybe the easier of the two, but honestly, if Bibi and if the Palestinians, if Israel and the Palestinians are Are happy, I'm happy with the one they like the best. I think the Palestinians have to get rid of some of that hate that they are taught from a very young age. They are taught tremendous hate. I've seen what they've taught. And you can talk about flexibility they are too but it starts at a very young age. And it starts In the school room and they have to acknowledge Israel.

They're gonna have to do that. There's no way a deal could be made if they're not ready to acknowledge a very very great and important country.
