Trump confirms calling Netanyahu ‘crazy’ over constant fights with Lebanon
“I was a little bit perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon,” Trump said in an interview released Wednesday with the New York Post’s “Pod Force One,” confirming earlier reporting by Axios about the profane conversation. Israel’s attacks against Iranian-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon have stalled negotiations between Washington and Tehran to bring an end to the more than three-month war in Iran. The regime has insisted Israel stop its military campaign against Hezbollah before a deal can be reached to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or reform Iran’s nuclear program.
