Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during a Fox News interview on Sunday, pushed back against Vice President JD Vance’s earlier criticism of Israel’s military strategy and Vance’s claim that the United States is Israel’s sole powerful ally. Netanyahu countered by noting that India, with 1.4 billion people, provides strong support. He then stated that many foreign leaders privately contact him, acknowledging difficulties with their own public opinion while still expressing respect and a desire to negotiate agreements. The remarks come amid reported tensions with the Trump administration, including a phone call in which President Donald Trump allegedly called Netanyahu “crazy” and accused him of ingratitude over Lebanon operations, according to Axios. The exchange highlights ongoing friction over the war with Iran and a U.S.-Israel memorandum of understanding.
