00:00Going back to Prime Minister Netanyahu's comments earlier, he made this pretty blistering statement
00:10in English, posted it to social media for consumption by American English-language media
00:18not long after his war cabinet collapsed or he had to pull down his war cabinet.
00:26And you just said that you have no idea what he's talking about and that only this one
00:31shipment of 2,000 pound bombs has been paused by the President.
00:35Is the Prime Minister lying?
00:38Is he making things up for political effect?
00:41You would have to...
00:42I can't speak to his political strategy, effects, that's not something that I can speak to.
00:47I was asked a question, I answered it, I don't know what he's talking about, we were very
00:51clear about there being one, one shipment that we're having, continue to have construction
00:56conversations with Israel about, nothing else has been paused.
01:02You heard that directly from Secretary Blinken.
01:04I can't speak for the Prime Minister, he's clearly speaking for himself, I'm speaking
01:09on behalf of this administration, I'm speaking on behalf of this President, I just don't
01:13have anything to add.
01:14I can't speak to his political strategy, that is not something for me to analyze, to do
01:19punditry from this podium.
01:22So just to confirm, anything other than the aforementioned shipment of 2,000 pound bombs
01:29categorically untrue that it's been paused?
01:31I already answered this question in categorically untrue.
01:34There's one shipment, one shipment.
