“A war hero.” Thus, the US president, Donald Trump, defined his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu. He did it during an interview in the podcast directed by a friend of both leaders, Republican Mark Levin. But for Trump not only Israel’s prime minister is a “war hero,” but also himself. “It’s a war hero because we work together. He is a war hero, I suppose I am too. Nobody cares, but I am too, “Trump said to celebrate below that it was he who made the decision to send the planes that bombarded the Iranian nuclear facilities.
The entire interview was a kind of gala carpet arranged for the placid promenade of the president of the United States, who before portraying as a “war hero” He also presumed to have stopped “six wars.” “I love to stop wars,” he said. It is the leitmotiv that now fills the most recent argumentary of the White House. The six wars already said it at the beginning of the week, shortly before the meeting he held with the Ukrainian President, Volodimir Zelenski, and several European leaders. In July, Trump said he had ended a war for each month of presidency. The statement, at least, is biased.
He tried to confirm with the US government the conflicts referred to by the president, he found that, despite having achieved some “diplomatic advances”, “two of the agreements that appear in the list of the White House are resumed to their first mandate and in one of them (between Ethiopia and Egypt) no agreement was signed.” Besides, Many of the conflicts referred to “have not been completely resolved, and wars in Ukraine and Gaza continue despite their promises to end them”.
In the conversation with Levin, Trump not only boasted of having ended the conflicts, but also boasted of having “recovered all the” Israeli hostages rescued after the attacks of October 7, 2023. “I recovered them, I worked with your friend Bibi [el apodo de Netanyahu]”Trump, who He called Israel’s prime minister as “a good man” who “are trying to put in jail”. In addition to the arrest warrant of the International Criminal Court for possible war crimes, Netanyahu faces in his country accusations for corruption.
Trump’s praises to Netanyahu have occurred the same day in which it has been known that Israel Defense Minister Israel Katz approved the plan for.
Also on Tuesday, the UN Rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, Francesca Albanese, said that “There are reasonable reasons to believe that the United States is an accomplice of international crimes and that the states of the European Union are flagrantly violating their international and regional obligations to protect and respect human rights,”. “The era of impunity,” Albanese summarized.
