Obviously, a huge moment unfolding in the Middle East right now.

Lots of questions about whether Israel and Iran are entering a prolonged war.

Well, Netanyahu made quite a bit of news here, so we will be breaking all of it down on Tuesday's edition of Start Here, but we just wanted to play you the entire interview as it aired.

So, here you go.

I'm joined by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

who comes to us from an undisclosed location in Israel. Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for joining us.

Let me start with the news that has just come in. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Iran

has been urgently signaling that it wants to end hostilities and

to resume talks over its nuclear program.

According to the journal, they have been sending messages to Israel and the United States via

Arab intermediaries.

Have you received that message from the Iranians?

Well, not directly, but I'm not surprised.

I mean, they want to continue to have these fake talks in which they lie, they cheat,

they string the US along, and we have very solid intel on that.

But of course, they want to keep on building their nuclear weapons

and building their mass ballistic missile arsenal, which

they're firing at our people.

They want to continue to create the two existential threats against Israel while they're talking.

That's not going to happen.

You know, we're not at the 11th hour.

We're the 12th hour and we stopped.
