Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran:

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran: Netanyahu did not build political support inside the United States in advance of the war—not among the isolationists within the administration, and not among the MAGA movement that turned against him. I'm not even talking about the complete collapse of relations with the Democratic Party.

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran:

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran: Netanyahu failed to convince the Americans to strike Iran's oil and energy facilities, especially at Kharg Island. I've been talking about this since October 2024. If you don't strike the energy infrastructure, then what do you do? How do you create economic pressure points against the Iranian regime? He failed to offer an alternative.

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran:

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid on Iran: Netanyahu sold the Americans a scenario in which the regime would fall. He did not present them with the risks: not the impact on energy markets, not the issue of Hormuz, not Lebanon, and above all not the fact that he did not actually know how to bring down the regime. And when that scenario failed to materialize, he lost their trust in the middle of the war.

Trump:

Trump: Radical Left fools and Dumocrats realize how well we have done in our War against Iran, with their Country being completely defeated militarily. Obuma just kept giving them $ Billions in cash, and never used our then depleted military for what should have been done to reign in the World’s number one sponsor of terror, Iran. They had ZERO respect for him. They thought he was, like Sleepy Joe Biden, a weak and ineffective leader, and on this they were 100% correct. Iran got away w
