Netanyahu Praises Trump’s Iran Strikes: “Bold Move That Will Change History”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a glowing statement Saturday, congratulating President Donald Trump following the U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites — calling the attack a “bold decision” that will “change history.”

“Your bold decision to target Iran's nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history,” Netanyahu declared.

The Israeli leader added that “Operation Rising Lion” — Israel’s own covert efforts — had already dealt serious blows to Iranian assets, but Trump’s strikes elevated the campaign:

“In tonight's action against Iran’s nuclear facilities, America has been truly unsurpassed. It has done what no other country on earth could do. History will record that President Trump acted to deny the world's most dangerous regime the world's most dangerous weapons.”

Netanyahu’s comments follow reports that he spoke with Trump directly after the strikes — a show of tight coordination between the U.S. and Israeli leadership amid escalating tensions with Tehran.
