Welcome Mr. Prime Minister and I look forward to our conversation. We have a lot to talk about. Thank you. Thank you all.
00:14.2
So I just had a frank and constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu.
00:29.4
I told him that I will always ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, including from Iran and Iran-backed militias such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
00:41.5
From when I was a young girl, collecting funds,
00:44.2
to plant trees for Israel, to my time in the United States Senate and now at the White House,
00:50.4
I have had an unwavering commitment to the existence of the State of Israel, to its security, and to the people of Israel.
00:59.3
I've said it many times but it bears repeating, Israel has a right to defend itself.
01:05.3
I also expressed with the Prime Minister my serious concern about the scale of human suffering in Gaza,
01:14.3
including the death of far too many innocent civilians.
01:19.3
And I made clear my serious concern about the dire humanitarian situation there,
01:26.9
with over two million people facing high levels of food insecurity
01:32.6
and half a million people facing catastrophic levels of acute food insecurity.
01:40.3
We cannot look away in the face of these tragedies.
01:43.4
We cannot acknowledge these events.
01:44.2
allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering, and I will not be silent.
01:51.5
Thanks to the leadership of our President Joe Biden, there is a deal on the table for a ceasefire and a hostage deal.
01:58.7
The first phase of the deal would bring about a full ceasefire, including a withdrawal of the Israeli military from population centers in Gaza.
02:09.0
In the second phase, the Israeli military would withdraw from Gaza entirely, and it would lead to a permanent end to the hostilities.
02:20.2
It is time for this war to end, and end in a way where Israel is secure, all the hostages are released, the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza ends,
02:33.1
and the Palestinian people can exercise their right to freedom.
02:38.4
It is time for this war to end, and end in a way where Israel is secure, all the hostages are released, and end in a way where Israel is secure, all the Palestinian people can exercise their right to freedom, dignity, and self-determination.
02:41.9
There has been hopeful movement in the talks to secure an agreement on this deal.
02:47.7
And as I just told Prime Minister Netanyahu, it is time to get this deal done.
02:52.5
And I know right now it is hard to conceive of that prospect, but a two-state solution is the only path that ensures Israel remains a secure Jewish and democratic state,
03:07.9
And I know right now it is hard to conceive of that prospect, but a two-state solution is the only path that ensures Israel remains a secure Jewish and democratic state,
03:08.4
and one that ensures Palestinians can finally realize the freedom, security, and prosperity that they rightly deserve.
03:17.7
It is important for the American people to remember, the war in Gaza is not a binary issue.
03:25.2
However, too often, the conversation is binary, when the reality is anything but.
03:31.7
So I ask my fellow Americans to help encourage efforts,
03:37.3
So I ask my fellow Americans to help encourage efforts,
03:37.9
to acknowledge the complexity, the nuance, and the history of the region.
03:44.8
Madam Vice President, Madam Vice President, Madam Vice President, after your meeting, are you convinced that...
