An angry Trump decries Israel, Iran for breaking ceasefire

A visibly frustrated President Donald Trump condemned Israel and Iran Tuesday morning for violating a ceasefire that he had heralded one day earlier.

“We have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing,” Trump told reporters on the White House lawn before departing to meet with NATO allies in the Netherlands.

The president also suggested that the two countries might not have broken the ceasefire intentionally but quickly added that he planned to speak with Israeli leaders to persuade them to call off additional attacks.

Moments after talking with reporters, Trump’s irritation manifested in an all caps Truth Social post insisting Israel not strike Iran.

“ISRAEL. DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS. IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION. BRING YOUR PILOTS HOME, NOW!”

Trump asserted in a corresponding post to his social media site that Israel was not going to attack Iran and that all planes would “turn around and head home.”

On Monday night, Trump told NBC News he expected the ceasefire to last “forever.” But Iran reportedly launched further attacks on Israel early Tuesday and Israel Defense Force’s chief of general staff said the country intends to respond with force.

“I don’t like the fact that Israel went out this morning at all and I’m going to see if I can stop it,” Trump said before boarding Marine One.
