Greenwald Claims Israel Tricked Trump Into Iran War With False Promises
Piers Morgan Uncensored
'Iran Will Give Up NOTHING' Israel Bombs Iran As Lebanon War Smashes Trump Ceasefire
What was said
"They tricked President Trump by making him think that it would last a very short time. And he now is saying, oh, we never thought they would close the Strait of Hormuz or attack these Arab dictatorships, even though that was always the reason not to go to war with Iran."
Glenn Greenwald alleged that Israel deceived President Trump into joining the war by promising quick regime change and claiming Iran wouldn't close the Strait of Hormuz. He argued Netanyahu and Mossad presented overly optimistic intelligence in the White House Situation Room, leading Trump to believe the IRGC would collapse and the Iranian people would rise up, none of which materialized.
