US President Donald Trump has been increasing pressure on Israel over recent days, an anonymous source told The Washington Post on Monday.
“Trump has been letting Israel know ‘we will abandon you if you do not end this war,’” the source added, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the press.
The increase in pressure from Trump came after Israel called up tens of thousands of reservists and ramped up Gaza bombings, the Washington Post added.
He thinks he’s being clever and subtle, but he’s literally just threatning him to get something.
I actually think that in Israel’s case, threats are the only option left. The world has been trying far too much subtle diplomacy with them.
This is what Biden could have done. Threaten to cut off all aid until the genocide stops. The option was always there.
It’s very much a stopped clock scenario of course. Trump is being the same bull headed idiot he always is, this just happens to be the one time that’s appropriate.
And it won’t matter because he’ll fold like a cheap suit. He’s all bark, no bite.
