The article reports on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's denial of a Washington Post article claiming ousted national security adviser Mike Waltz had extensive discussions with him about potential military action against Iran's nuclear sites. Netanyahu's office clarified their interactions were limited, refuting claims that Waltz's hawkish stance upset President Trump. Sources indicated Waltz's push for a strategy possibly conflicting with Trump's more diplomatic approach contributed to his removal as national security adviser. The piece underscores the delicate balance in U.S. foreign policy regarding Iran and internal disagreements within the Trump administration.
Contrary to the Washington Post report, PM Netanyahu did not have intensive contact with Mike Waltz on Iran. PM Netanyahu had a warm meeting with Mike Waltz...
One of the sources said Waltz 'wanted to take US policy in a direction Trump wasn't comfortable with because the US hadn't attempted a diplomatic solution.'
The then-national security adviser told The Post that the president had been clear about pursuing 'all options,' military or otherwise, to halt Tehran's regime from getting a nuclear bomb.
It got back to Trump and the president wasn't happy with it... Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and the president has been there repeatedly.
