US President Donald Trump said Sunday that a peace deal with Iran was still on track to be signed within hours, despite an Israeli strike on Beirut that he said had delayed the plan.

“It shook it up. It delayed the signing by a few hours. It was supposed to be now. Now it is scheduled for a few hours from now,” Trump said in a phone call to the Axios news outlet.

Trump fumed at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the attack on Beirut, saying, “it is so bad — I couldn’t believe it. An hour before we are supposed to sign the deal.”

  • He is full of it. There is no Israel military attack without US approval and participation. US provide the intelligence, missile guiding, missiles and ammunition, money for Israel army, social security/services and health for all the Israel country, we pay Egypt billions every year not to attack Israel and did this since Egypt-Israel war long-long time ago…. Trump is a dirty player with no scruples, honor or principles. A dirty corrupt through the bone crook.
