Donald Trump Criticizes Israel PM
Benjamin Netanyahu, Calls Hezbollah 'Very Smart'
Former President Donald Trump on
Wednesday criticized Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu just
days after Hamas’ surprise attack
on Israel prompted the latter to
declare a state of war.
The Republican front-runner also
called the Lebanon-based, Iran-
backed militant organization
Hezbollah “very smart” amid
escalating tensions across the
Middle East.
Some commentators speculated
that Trump’s criticism of
Netanyahu could be related to
the prime minister’s decision
to congratulate President Joe
Biden on his victory in the
2020 election, which Trump
falsely maintains to this day
was stolen. The former president
was reportedly furious with
Netanyahu at the time.
Earlier in his speech, Trump
complimented the Iran-aligned
Hezbollah, which on Sunday
attacked Israeli positions from
the north in what it described
as solidarity with the
“Palestinian resistance.”
“You know, Hezbollah is very
smart,” Trump said. “They’re
all very smart.”
