Telling Israel it had better not respond to an Iranian missile attack, the US president, desperate for a deal with the devilish regime, presents Netanyahu with a terrible dilemma

One hundred days after they went to war together to thwart Iran’s rogue nuclear weapons program, radically degrade its ballistic missile industry, end its support for the Hezbollah and Hamas terror armies, and create the conditions for the fall of the regime, the US-Israel alliance against the Islamic Republic on Sunday reached its nadir.

Trump has repeatedly denied claims that Netanyahu dragged him and the United States into the war. But he has made it increasingly clear that he is desperate to end it, even with none of the declared US-Israeli goals achieved. He’s still insisting that he is holding out for terms that will ensure the regime never gets nuclear weapons, but there’s no guarantee of that in the leaked drafts of the Memorandum of Understanding he’s been working toward. And his overt priority is to get the Strait of Hormuz dependably open again, and alleviate the global energy chaos that Tehran has proved so adept at creating.
