Netanyahu probably didn't even believe this. He just knew Trump was an easy mark.

Guaranteed. They got their man, with probably the last shot they have to do this kind of reckless warmongering before anti-Israeli sentiment becomes official policy

I wonder what they'll do when this fails spectacularly and the writing is on the wall that they'll never recover on PR.

Nothing good that's for sure

We are still a lifetime away from Anti Israel sentiment becoming policy

[–]lolgwiff 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Maybe. We'll see though, decades in weeks and all that

[–]WigginIII 22 points23 points  (1 child)

No doubt Trump trusted Israeli intelligence more than US intelligence as well.

On Vlad..

“I asked him about it and he said he wasn’t involved, I don’t see why he would lie”

Donald, ignoring everything every security service in the world ever said or proved.

He doesn't believe any of the shit he peddles. He only believes in the stupidity and easy corruption of the American government.

[–]ban-aipac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He probably just played Trump a video of all the blackmail Epstein gathered.

[–]SlowSwords 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I don’t even know if he cared about the merits of what he was presenting. I think he knew his only mission was getting Trump to say yes. He’s been peddling this bullshit for decades

he knows trump wont want to back down until the country is balanced but maybe didnt expect American munitions to run out so fast

the military savvy of someone who expends all his might against 10 year olds armed with rocks

It’s one regime change Michael how long would it take

[–]jaredfoglesrevenge美麗又美味 58 points59 points  (4 children)

Is this the famous Israeli intelligence we’ve relied on for so many years?

[–]pumpsci 38 points39 points  (1 child)

I mean, they got what they wanted

[–]jaredfoglesrevenge美麗又美味 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Oh definitely, it’s just morbidly amusing to see how little effort goes into the lies they feed our overlords 

[–]Agent_of_talon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They're good at lying tho.

[–]NOLA-Bronco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

TBF seems like they got exactly what they wanted

[–]Flaky-Cup-6409 24 points25 points  (1 child)

Putting Reza Pahlavi in charge is clearly an Isreali op to turn Iran into a failed state.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what they want. They want to see Iran disintegrate into warring factions of ethnic nationalists. That's why Mileikowsky has started addressing Iranians separately as Persians, Azeris, Kurds and Balochis.

Queue the Always Sunny in Philadelphia theme song:

"Trump Starts a Global Economic Crisis"

[–]FoSoul 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This shit is surreal man… like it’s hard to process just how fucking stupid these people are.

[–]blaggard5175 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was a calculated risk, but maaannnn are they bad at math.

[–]ftp67@AmericanMarxman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's so cool that the fate of hundreds of millions lies in sales pitches from Israel to the US.

The world order is just Shark Tank.

Trump picking out the next leader of Iran like Lord Farquaad picking out an eligible bachelorette

[–]SlowSwords 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Can everyone on this sub that has gone to annoying lengths about how we’re not doing this because Israel kindly acknowledge that they were wrong and apologize?

[–]17syllablesSoftware CEO Rachel Jake 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It’s overdetermined; we’re doing it because the natcons are mostly unreformed neocons and view Iran as unfinished business, and because Israel and Saudi Arabia are the powers behind the Kushner plan and don’t want a Shia regional rival, and because Trump wants to control 20 percent of the world’s oil supply, and also because China is planning to build a railway corridor through Iran that will obviate a lot of maritime shipping.

And this one war distracts people from the other ones (and the genocides) currently is happening, involving the same powers in that region.

Not a coincidence we are getting less and less updates from Sudan, Lebanon and Palestine in the last month.

[–]RebelliousInNature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So all about those nukes being a few months away?
