#BREAKING: In a pre-recorded message rathern live, PM Netanyahu delivers a rambling, disjointed defense of the ceasefire deal with Hezbollah, downplaying its significance while recycling empty rhetoric about "total victory" over Hamas, the Iranian threat, and hollow promises on hostage release.

#SCOOP: Saudi officials were briefed on and greenlighted key talking points in Biden and Netanyahu's statements on normalization, a U.S. official tells me.

Ahead of #Biden's mtg w/ #Netanyahu tomorrow, it's important we remember that, under Netanyahu, 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 has increasingly been acting as an 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆, not an ally, 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗦. (See my piece, together w/ @pardosharon, in @TIME below.) time.com/6265254/neta...
