    1. They have a right to respond, but they should respond proportionally.

    1. We're in constant communication with the Israeli government at different levels, including the secretary to Minister Gallant.
    2. You can have frank … direct conversations with your friends. You're not always going to agree on everything but that doesn't mean that there's tensions.
    3. I am going to stay out of Israeli politics.

    1. Gallant was supposed to go the United States to finalise [the strike on Iran] with Defense Secretary Austin. Netanyahu is both being contrarian and making sure that the Americans understand that he's calling the shots — so he gets some PR from this — but effectively, he's also delaying the strike.
