September 30, 2016
Former President Bill Clinton flew into Israel on Thursday for the Friday funeral of former Israeli President Shimon Peres. On Thursday night he had dinner at the home of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Meanwhile, President Obama and his presidential delegation arrived in Israel for the funeral early Friday morning.
After the funeral, both presidents were scheduled to get on Air Force One to jet back to Washington, DC, for a dinnertime arrival. Obama boarded the plane, however, perennial shmoozer Clinton dawdled on the tarmac.
Watch below as an exasperated Obama tries to get Clinton to board the plane.
Notable Quotables
"According to the mullahs in Tehran, we are 'the Great Satan,' lord of the underworld, master of the raging inferno. So, I might imagine they would take me seriously when I assure them today: If you cross us, our allies, or our partners; if you harm our citizens; if you continue to lie, cheat and deceive, yes, there will indeed be hell to pay."
~ US National Security Adviser John Bolton, in a keynote address at the United Against Nuclear Iran annual summit on Tuesday, after a top military official in Iran warned the US and Israel on Monday that there would be a "devastating" response to the parade attack (more here).
