Trump Blocks Netanyahu’s Beirut Strike - And Israel Is Fuming

Netanyahu isn't so much jumping to Trump's tune as judging how far he can be pushed and 'crazy' frankly isn't a strong enough word... Right, so Benjamin Netanyahu has just been told no by the one man on earth he was certain would never say it to him. He couldn’t afford to surely? Not a soft no, not a diplomatic cough into the sleeve, not one of those meaningless little Washington noises that gets dressed up as pressure while Israel carries on exactly as it pleases. Donald Trump has gone public to announce there will be no Israeli troops going into Beirut, that any already on their way have been turned round, and the reporting coming out of both Washington and Israel has him losing his rag down the phone and calling Netanyahu, and this is the word that's stuck, crazy. This is the man who's spent the whole war holding Israel's coat, nodding along to every last thing it fancied doing, giving it the weapons, the cover, the vetoes, the excuses, the language, the diplomatic padding, the whole imperial travel cushion, and even he has reached across the Atlantic and hauled Netanyahu back by the collar now. Some of his ministers however, of course had to lay it on that bit thicker though. Ben Gvir there, he’ll have gone a shade of beetroot over this never mind thanking Trump, so there’s a happy little thought to have free of charge at any rate. The Prime Minister of Israel pointed his air force at the southern suburbs of Beirut, the Dahieh, made the threat in public, let his own ministers swagger about it, and got told to sit down and behave, in public, with the convoy already rolling. This literally never happens. Not like this. Not with Israel. Not with Netanyahu, who has built an entire career on knowing Washington will eventually swallow whatever he shoves in its mouth. Donald Trump has made a definitive statement that Israeli troops will not enter Beirut, marking a significant development in current middle east politics. This breaking news challenges conventional diplomatic expectations and has become a major topic in news today. The declaration from donald trump signals a notable shift in foreign policy concerning the lebanon war. ►SOURCES: NAHARNET: Israeli strike damages hospital in city of Tyre AL JAZEERA: Israeli strike damages hospital in southern Lebanon; Trump says Israel and Hezbollah agree to halt hostilities, Lebanon invasion VOICE OF EMIRATES: 5 Killed in Initial Toll of Airstrike on the Vicinity of Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre; Power Outage in Jabal Amel Hospital ICU in Tyre Following an Israeli Airstrike EURONEWS: Tehran suspended negotiations via mediators with US, Iranian media says TIMES OF ISRAEL: Trump announces fresh Lebanon truce as Netanyahu appears to call off Beirut strikes ***Subscribe to the channel here*** https://www.youtube.com/KernowDamo?sub_confirmation=1 ►ABOUT ME: Hi, I'm Damien Willey.
