Except that at this point Israel is doing it all on her own, without getting America involved at all — in fact despite America. And the war isn’t in the least bit phony — Iran really has been behind it all. Zero points for Professor Sachs, who did see the trees, but completely missed the forest they made. [IsraelTimes] US President-elect Donald Trump shares a video on his Truth Social account which includes a professor calling Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “dark son of a bitch,” accusing him of being “obsessive” as he tries to get the US to go to war against Iran.
Trump shares a snippet of a lecture by Columbia University economics professor Jeffrey Sachs, where he speaks about the pretext for the US invasion of Iraq, and how the US government at the time was trying to find a way to sell the “phony war” to the American people.
“Where did that war come from?” Sachs asks, rhetorically, in a speech that is an attack on the Obama administration’s actions.
“You know what? It’s quite surprising. That war came from Netanyahu, actually,” he claims.
“Netanyahu had, from 1995 on, the theory that the only way we are going to get rid of Hamas and Hezbollah, is by toppling the governments that support them. That’s Iraq, Syria and Iran,” he adds.
“And the guy [Netanyahu] is nothing if not obsessive, and he is still trying to get us to fight Iran to this day, this week,” he claims. “He is a deep, dark son of a bitch, sorry to tell you.”
“He has gotten us into endless wars, and because of the power of all this in US politics, he has gotten his way,” Sachs concludes.
