Donald Trump Slams Israel: “Enough is Enough”
Donald Trump has ordered Israel to stop bombing Lebanese territory immediately. The former US President unleashed a series of fiery posts on Truth Social, declaring: “Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer.” With tensions high, Trump insisted Washington will handle Hezbollah through separate diplomatic and possible military moves, saying, “America will, separately, work with Lebanon, and deal with the Hezboolah situation in an appropriate manner.” This crackdown on Israeli strikes comes as Trump finalises a deal with Tehran — claiming no cash will change hands despite rumours of a $20 billion unfrozen asset settlement. “No money will exchange hands in any way, shape, or form,” he vowed. The deal also includes securing “all Nuclear ‘Dust’” from last year’s US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, a key step to prevent Iran from rebuilding its weapons programme.
Trump Berates NATO: “Paper Tiger!”
In a separate scathing post, Trump slammed NATO allies for their “useless” support over the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane recently reopened under Iranian supervision. “I received a call from NATO asking if we would need some help,” Trump recounted. “I TOLD THEM TO STAY AWAY, UNLESS THEY JUST WANT TO LOAD UP THEIR SHIPS WITH OIL.” His rebuke comes despite British PM Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron unveiling a joint defensive mission to protect commercial traffic through the strait. European NATO members have repeatedly refused Trump’s calls for intervention after Iran’s closure of the waterway in response to US military action.
Trump’s Diplomatic Juggle Amid Global Tensions
Trump’s bombastic social media blitz highlights his drive to assert control over complex foreign policy issues while publicly managing fraught relationships with traditional allies. He has warned NATO faces a “very bad future” if it doesn’t back American regional aims, setting the stage for ongoing clashes within Western alliances. The former president’s aggressive stance signals a turbulent road ahead for US diplomacy in the Middle East and beyond.
