U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he "spoke at length" with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the attempted attack on the Fly Dubai flight to Israel, and said: "It appears the co-pilot was perhaps a terrorist, or perhaps insane, and he stabbed the pilot." According to him, "an Israeli plumber who had never flown a plane pulled this guy out of the seat and threw him back, grabbed the controls, pulled them up—and straightened the plane just before it crashed. From watching the show 'Air Crash Investigation,' he learned more or less how to fly a plane." Trump added: "That's the story I heard. I don't know if it's true, but that's the story I got from Bibi and a few other people."
