Israrli PM Netanyahu gets a snub from former US President
Shares
Former president of the United States, Donald Trump, voiced criticism against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and made remarks about Hezbollah's intelligence. This statement emerged shortly after an attack on Israel.
During a speech to a gathering of more than 3,500 supporters at a convention center in Palm Beach, Florida, Donald Trump highlighted his accomplishments, including relocating the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and the signing of the Abraham Accords, which normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. He emphasized that these actions would have led to a flourishing Israel and prevented Iran from causing problems.
However, he also painted a grim picture of the world, describing it as plagued by chaos, bloodshed, war, terror, and death. He warned of the possibility of World War III on the horizon and criticized the competence of the Biden administration, labeling its members as "stupid people."
Furthermore, Trump directly targeted Netanyahu, claiming that the Israeli leader did not assist the United States in the 2020 drone strike that killed Qasem Soleimani, the leader of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps responsible for covert military operations. This criticism marked a departure from the praise Netanyahu had received from Trump when the strike occurred.
In Trump's words, "I'll never forget that Bibi Netanyahu let us down," characterizing it as a "very terrible thing.
