Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that the Trump administration reports to him every day about the ongoing war in Iran.
In a meeting with Israel’s Cabinet ministers, Netanyahu said, “I spoke yesterday with Vice President JD Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations. In this case, the explosion in the negotiations.”
Netanyahu went on to claim that the U.S. broke off the negotiations because Iran didn’t immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz and wouldn’t commit to getting rid of all of its enriched uranium.

Reported a few times as an Opinion piece, but when it comes to stories like this, I lean heavily on the rule:
Opinion pieces MAY be removed. They aren’t automatically removed.
The story here is a direct quote from Netanyahu which raises it above opinion or speculation.
“I spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations.”
Someone needs to put a nut in this yahoo.
He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day
While I don’t doubt this is true, the only time politicians aren’t lying is when they aren’t talking. I used to be a politician, and I fucking hate lying. It messed me up.
Good dog
America SHOULD be keeping Israel up to Date INSTEAD of our Citizens or Allies! We DO Represent THEM after all!
-Chuck Schumer!
Two sickos speaking to each other.
I’m wondering if the final collapse of an Empire being triggered by going into a war they cannot win which accelerates their Economic and social collapse, to serve the wishes of a much, much smaller country, is actually Historically unique.
Sure, getting some populist leader who then proceeds to mismanage everything and ends up doing some stupid shit with massive consequences that final torpedoes the once imperial nation down, is pretty common in History, but doing said “stupid shit” serving the interests of a much smaller and weaker nation might actually make this unique.
Netanyahu and Trump, agents of chaos
So he brainwashes his demented, fragile, spongey brain every day? Okay.
I mean, they’re fighting a war together. It would be weird as hell if they weren’t reporting to each other daily.
So sick of evil Dumbo
Most cucked administration ever. American Century Of Humiliation.
Tucker Carlson is right. Very, very, insidiously, cryptofascistically, WASP-ingly, Swanson Foods fortune inheritingly, aristocracily aligned far right. In this case he’s also correct.
he was always anti-semetic pretty much, its just fox kept a tight leash on him. thats why kirk, CANDACE were pretty much on his side. having tucker on kirk’s show rubbed the aipac backer the wrong way
Just friendly reminder that Bibi’s corruption trial would’ve started this week in Israel, but was conveniently delayed because of a forever war he is perpetuating.
It’s like he and the people who could remove him have silently made a deal with the devil. He stays out of jail in exchange for a “Greater Israel”. It’s weird how fascism looks exactly like this every time. Like some sort of sociological defect, like ants in a death spiral.
I don’t understand why the United States needs Israel so much. why can’t they just do regular types of diplomacy like economic trade agreements or whatever? what’s the problem?
Plain old colonialism. Israel is the USA’s foothold in the middle east.
Christian Zionism. If Israel is armed to the teeth and encouraged into a bloody, protracted regional war, conservative evangelicals believe it will force Jesus to come back to Earth sooner than God was expected (because apparently an omnipotent and omnipresent deity can be tricked so easily), and thus usher in Armageddon.
I wish that was a joke. But it’s not.
Of course that’s only one reason. The real answer is a complex series of interdependent pieces. Christian Zionism, anti-Muslim paranoia, subconscious guilt over the Holocaust, wanting to appeal to conservative Christian and Jewish voters domestically, and now many politicians on both sides being deep in the pockets of ultra conservative Israeli power brokers via AIPAC.
i want to assume religion isn’t a real reason for anything and it’s more of a tool for manufacturing consent
more of a tool for manufacturing consent
What else is religion most of the time?
One obvious possibility: Israel is blackmailing American politicians to do what Israel wants. Epstein was an Israeli asset. The kid-diddle island was Israel collecting blackmailable people from politics, finance, entertainment – all assets they could deploy later.
The Republican Party’s files were hacked like a decade ago…right around the time a whole lot of anti-Trump Republicans (like Sen Graham SC) permanently changed their tune about Trump.
That’s why American can’t seem to quit Israel.
no i don’t think it’s that stupid I’m sorry
probably the oil and natural gas, they cant have ME countries nationalizing and controlling thier own supply. thats why Iran is the pariah of the ME, because they broke from the US/UK during islamic revoltion as result of the SHAH regime which was installed by the US/UK to keep the supply of oil coming.
Take a look at the names of every law firm and financial institute in this country.
You fell into the trap.
75% of people from X are Y. Anyone who is Y is to blame.
The real answer is that corruption is cheap.
White people close to the oil
I understand this in some sense but not really because I don’t see what difference it makes if you have regular types of diplomacy and internationalism and trade with money or whatever
Powerful white people love bombing powerless brown people.
I think more people need to ask this question.
I think it’s 2 thing mainly.
- Israel has bribed or blackmailed most major politicians. Look up campaign donations from AIPAC and their related PACs.
- A large portion of American Evangelicals genuinely believe that by supporting Israel they are helping to bring about armageddon. You know, gog and magog type shit.
- A large portion of American Evangelicals genuinely believe that by supporting Israel they are helping to bring about armageddon.
AKA, death cultists who are eager to kill us all.
God comes back, looks at Israel: “Fuck me, you murdered a lot of kids! Just because you’re my chosen people, doesn’t mean you can act like barbarians! Y’know what? Fuck it. I’m choosing the North Sentinelese”.
israel is trying garner more support from magats apparently, it seems it not enough. TPUSA is primarly funded by an israeli-backed person, which is the contention that caused his death, because kirk and owens were anti-semites, and it was hurting thier image, Tucker was a problem for aipac because he has a sucha large audience and can easily make them hate israel.
Some reaping stuff in Christianity is why US loves Israel
