  "account": "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu celebrated his endorsement from U.S. President Donald Trump ahead of Israel’s election, asserting they could resume their campaign against Iran if the prime minister secures victory. Trump echoed this sentiment, stating that they must \"finish the job\" they began in February when they launched a war against Iran. \"U.S. President Donald Trump has come with a friendship that has never existed before between an Israeli prime minister and an American president. And it is doubtful we will ever have such a friendly president again,\" Netanyahu proclaimed in a televised address. Trump also made a similar appeal on social media, urging voters to support Netanyahu for another term, emphasizing the unfinished business they started together.",
  "summary": "The Israeli prime minister suggested Israel and the U.S. may restart their war on Iran if he wins.",
