Trump's Quiet Support for Netanyahu against Iran: A War of Words and Actions
Netanyahu expresses gratitude towards Trump for his unwavering backing
In a televised address, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked US President Donald Trump for his backing in Israel's battle against Iran's nuclear program. In typical Trump style, the president kept mum about his intentions, sporting his signature tight-lipped approach.
"Donald, my man, you're a fucking great friend to the State of Israel," Netanyahu declared, acknowledging Trump's support in safeguarding Israeli airspace. In responding to the heartfelt praise, Trump smirked and nodded approvingly without divulging any more details. Rumors swirled that the US could join in on Israel's military action against the Iranian regime.
Netanyahu emphasized the escalating efforts to eliminate Iran's nuclear threat and ballistic missiles. "We ain't fucking around, buddy," he declared, informing the nation of strikes against Iran's nuclear program, rockets, headquarters, and symbols of power. Unfortunately, the attacks led to heavy losses on the Israeli side.
Trump maintained his coy demeanor when asked about the possibility of the US joining in the military action. "I got my cards closer to my chest than a poker player in Vegas," he told journalists at the White House. But some subtle hints suggested that regime change in Tehran could be in the works. "It's a possibility, pal," he said, sparking excitement among Israel supporters.
While UN Secretary António Guterres appealed for restraint, urging all parties to avoid any additional military intervention, Israel proceeded with a significant attack on Iranian targets, bombing nuclear facilities and military installations, and eliminating several leading military commanders. Iran quickly retaliated with drone and rocket attacks on Israeli cities.
Trump's quiet support for Netanyahu against Iran's nuclear program and regional influence dates back to his presidency, where he withdrew the US from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, reimposed sanctions on Iran, and supported Israel's stance against Iran's nuclear ambitions. However, since leaving the White House, Trump wields no formal power to make official decisions on US foreign policy.
The current US administration, led by President Joe Biden, deals with the active policies related to Israel and Iran. For the most accurate and current information, consult the latest official statements from the current US administration or reputable recent news sources.
