Of coarse Mossad themselves wouldn't do it. She's talking about someone else using Mossad-like methods.

Just remember that you HAD a treaty which Iran was abiding by, until Trump tore it because he couldn’t stand that accomplishments of a Black man.

Maybe he’ll visit Russia and fallout of a window. Oopsie.

Yeah, we have seen these days clips of Netanjahu through the years trying to get the US presidents from Bush to Obama to Biden to get into the war with Iran by claiming that Iran is making nuclear bombs, and they all rebuffed him, but now he has a confused and reckless guy who will likely do it.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Trump wants to run with the big dogs. Unfortunately he's just a yappy little shit.

He'll stay on the porch, he's the lapdog of too many billionaires to risk that seat.

First I don’t trust Donald Trump on this or any other issue and it looks like I am not the only one
(No one knows who they are gossiping about but it’s probably not the new pope  )
2) I don’t trust Netanyahu either.
Yes Israel has the right to exist as a nation and it has the right to defend itself and other nations have the right to help Israel in doing that. As usual they are very clever and well organized. Saddam did not have any chemical weapons. But I am part of those who believe that rogue regimes can be ousted by foreign powers if it comes to that. That’s because such regimes are simply not legitimate. I would be opposed to anyone acting on the King of Morocco for instance. The king of morocco is not democratically elected. But he does not oppress his own people so he is still a legitimate ruler. Who can say that for these misogynic, terror supporting religion distorting power crazy maniacs of Iran?
Still: Netanyahu and his circle are denying Palestinians their very right to exist. There has to be a free Palestine (and Lebanon) with its own rules, own (secular and democratically elected) government, own police and army that has close to normal relationships with Israel. But on a personal level, I gave up on that already. If I had power of some sort I would simply move these people out of harm’s way (just like D.Trump said). That’s because both sides of this conflict are religiously motivated fanatics with whom agreements are simply not possible. So it’s children and aid workers who are paying the price. This has to stop

Apparently, Israel has the right to defend itsel, but Iran does not.
