Trump confirms he was 'perturbed' at Netanyahu over war in Lebanon

US President Donald Trump has confirmed reports that he was frustrated at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel's conduct in Lebanon. 

He was asked by presenter Miranda Devine during an interview with Pod Force One to confirm reports that he was angry with Netanyahu and had said "Are you F-ing crazy? What are you F-ing doing? I helped you stay out of jail." 

"Is that true - did you speak to him in those terms?" Devine asked. 

"I did," Trump replied. "I wouldn't say angry. I was a little bit perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon... I said Bibi, we've got to stop this." 

He went on to say that he has a "very good relationship" with Netanyahu and likes him a lot.
