Netanyahu is really going the extra mile to manipulate Trump into joining his war against Iran:
In an exclusive interview on a special edition of Fox News’ Special Report Sunday, the prime minister tried to drum up support for Israel’s strikes on Iran by linking the nation to the assassination attempts on the U.S. president.
“These people who chant, death to America, tried to assassinate President Trump twice, kill 241 of your Marines in Beirut, killed and injured thousands of American soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, try to bomb a restaurant in Washington D.C., chant death to America, burn the American flag, do you want these people to have nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to your cities?” Netanyahu said. “Of course not. So we’re defending ourselves, but we’re also defending the world.”
Iran did threaten Trump. But this seems like a stretch. I’m sure Trump would buy it but he’s got some MAGA types around him who don’t want to escalate (like Vance) and he’s TACO anyway. But Bibi does have his number.
