US President Donald Trump is taking no prisoners today. Just hours after Trump announced a ceasefire had come into place between Israel and Iran – following the Iranian strikes yesterday evening on Doha – now the President has sent a message to Israel, warning against further strikes in a rather, um, explicit fashion.
Taking first to his Truth Social platform, Trump issued a concise memo:
ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW!
Speaking to reporters before today’s Nato summit in The Hague, the US President then went on to fume that he is ‘not happy’ with Israel. The Israeli military had agreed to Trump’s peace proposal, but subsequently announced it had intercepted a missile launched by Iran – Tehran denies starting fresh attacks. ‘There was one rocket that I guess was fired overboard after the time limit and now Israel is going out. These guys [have] got to calm down,’ he told the press. ‘I didn’t like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal. They didn’t have to unload.’ Trump added:
We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.
Don’t hold back!
In the last few minutes, the President has taken to Truth Social to issue yet another message, after initially climbing that both Iran and Israel violated his ceasefire agreement. Now Trump has written:
Israel is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly ‘plane wave’ to Iran. Nobody will be hurt, the ceasefire is in effect! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Half an hour is a long time in politics, eh? Watch the clip here:
