Trump’s anger at Netanyahu ‘100 percent genuine’

Alon Pinkas, a former Israeli ambassador and consul general in New York, says Trump’s public criticism of Netanyahu is “100 percent genuine”. “Trump is disappointed, disillusioned and, in fact, angry and livid that Netanyahu sold him on a war with false premises – that the regime in Iran would collapse, that there would be a popular uprising,” said Pinkas. In addition, Trump “seems to perceive that Netanyahu is trying his best to derail and undermine the agreement with Iran via Israeli attacks in Lebanon”, Pinkas added.
