According to him, the head of the Israeli government is currently in negotiations with Hamas, which will include the return of hostages.
"Is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a courtroom all day for nothing (cigars, a Bugs Bunny doll, etc.). This is political persecution, very similar to the persecution I was forced to endure. This 'justice' will hinder negotiations with both Iran and Hamas."
He called the trial of Netanyahu by "uncontrolled prosecutors" "insanity."
"The United States of America spends billions of dollars a year, far more than on any other country, protecting and supporting Israel. We will not tolerate this.
