Netanyahu also nominated the U.S. president as the first non-Israeli person to receive the “highest award” of the Israel Prize, the Presidential Medal of Honor.
“I have submitted your nomination to be the first non-Israeli recipient of the Israel Prize, Israel’s highest award. As to that other prize, just a question of time, you’ll get it. But I want you to get the Israel Prize, our highest award to our greatest friend,” Netanyahu said. “When others were weak, you were strong. When others were fearful, you were bold. When others abandoned us, you stood by our side. On behalf of the government and people of Israel, I thank you for your extraordinary friendship. Thank you for helping bring our hostages home.”
Netanyahu then thanked the president for “paving a path to peace.” Prior to this statement, Netanyahu pointed out King Solomon’s words in the book of Ecclesiastes and how there is a “…time for peace and a time for war. The last two years have been a time of war. The coming years will hopefully be a time for peace. Peace inside Israel and peace outside Israel.“
