00:00
Well, it gives me an extraordinary sense of personal joy to have been named by the president
00:12
as an evangelical Christian believer to take this post. And to be honest, I was a little
00:18
concerned that maybe there would be some resistance to that on behalf of Israeli people
00:24
and Jewish people. But what I found is that just the opposite. And many people, my Jewish friends
00:30
have expressed this over and again, that if I were Jewish and came as ambassador, they'd say,
00:37
well, of course, he supports Israel. He's Jewish. He doesn't have a choice. I say to them, I have a
00:44
choice and I make my choice to support Israel and to show my friendship that has existed, by the way,
00:53
for 52 years, from my very first trip here, which was in 1973, when I was a month shy of my 18th
01:01
birthday. So I've seen you, obviously, Chris, probably several dozen of the times that I've
01:07
been here. And it never grows old. I never get to the point where I don't learn something.
01:14
I never get to the point where I don't experience something being in this very magnificent place.
01:20
Yes. Yes.
