Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced his full support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the upcoming election on Sunday. In a post on the Truth Social platform, Trump called Netanyahu a "great warrior" and "a greater partner for peace" in confronting Iran, which he stated has chanted "Death to Israel, Death to America" for 51 years. Trump questioned how any nation could withstand such threats and noted Iran's systematic military and economic "destruction," warning the U.S. would finish the job if Tehran didn't change course. He added that if Israel had a leader other than "Bibi," the U.S. would have to handle the task itself, which he is "not inclined" to do. Trump praised Netanyahu for being strong, brave, and brilliant in the face of "tremendous opposition," including from within Israel, asserting that Netanyahu "held firm, and even thrived." He emphasized that Netanyahu is the type of partner the U.S. needs, especially given American support for Israel. Trump urged Israelis to view his message as an expression of his "full and absolute support" for Netanyahu's bid for a new term as prime minister, concluding that "Bibi Netanyahu will never let you down."
