President Donald Trump expressed outrage Sunday in a purported phone call with Axios’ Barak Ravid over Israel’s latest act of defiance, one that risks jeopardizing his long-sought peace deal with Iran that he’s shown a “strange insistence” for finalizing on Sunday, his 80th birthday.
On Saturday, Trump said that a peace deal between Washington and Tehran was scheduled to be signed on Sunday – a statement that also included what many interpreted to be a threat to use nuclear weapons. On Sunday morning, however, Israel launched airstrikes at Lebanon – killing at least three and injuring 16 – a violation of Iran’s conditions for signing any peace agreement with the United States.
“Why did [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu] have to do a f—— attack?” Trump reportedly said, according to Ravid. “I was so [p—–] off. I let him know. He has no f—— judgement. I let him know that.”
Israel has repeatedly defied Trump’s explicit demands that it halt its bombardment of Lebanon, and appeared to do so again Sunday morning, something Sami Nader of the Levant Institute for Strategic Affairs warned could “torpedo the deal between the US and Iran.”
