Donald Trump criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — and called the Iran-backed terrorist organization Hezbollah “very smart” ― just days after Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel, the HuffPost reports.
Trump described “a bad experience with Israel” when he claimed Netanyahu had at the last minute pulled out from a joint U.S.-Israel 2020 operation to assassinate Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani.
Said Trump: “We did it but I’ll never forget that Bibi Netanyahu let us down. That was a very terrible thing. We were disappointed by that. Very disappointed. But we did the job ourself and it was absolute precision, a magnificent, beautiful job. And then Bibi tried to take credit for it. That didn’t make me feel too good but that’s all right.”
