  1. Trump is president.... GOP owns Congress... stop blaming the left... when does GOP take any responsibility?

    trump said he would end wars and Russia and Ukraine still fighting and trump chickened out and said he will not deal with Russia. Israel still bombing Hamas despite trump being president. Trump said he would not allow Israel attack Iran and..... well.

    Take some responsibility already.

    What a delusional statement. By their own admission they were not going to stop enriching uranium to weapons grade.

    Trump's ego would not endure a ploy which makes him look weak as a cover for Israel's attack. This is a straight up case of Netanyahu doing whatever he pleases and making Trump look like a clown.

    Trump didn’t want Israel to strike. They did it anyway.

  5. Not necessarily untrue, but you and lefty media are the only ones who think he is looking weak here.

    Trump was trying to get tough with the Iranian negotiators but OOPS Israel just killed the lead negotiator. I am not as sure as you are that this undermines Trump's "messaging" to them about the need to get serious.
     
  6. It is called diplomacy. Trump had to distance himself from this so that it would lesson the impact on relationship with other countries in the middle east. It is called blame shifting.

    The reality is that Israel wanted these "negotiations" to stop. The end result would have simply been to allow Iran to secretly continue with their nuclear development. Israel has taken the course of eliminating Iran's nuclear ambitions with finality.

  9. Where and when he say that? Not agreeing or disagreeing. I would just like to examine it in context. "Not allow" is a strong term. Trump said he would not allow Israel to defend itself under any circumstances?
