Trump Tells Israel Not to Strike Iran, Saying He 'Calls the Shots'

Following the first exchange of strikes between Iran and Israel since the April ceasefire, President Donald Trump informed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to retaliate. Trump stated that Netanyahu must accept any deal the U.S. negotiates with Iran, asserting that he calls all the shots. This directive followed a phone call last week where Trump lashed out at the prime minister, emphasizing that the Israeli leader would have no choice but to comply with U.S. leadership.
