White House sources say Trump is 'raging' in fear at being pulled back into his war

Zeteo writers Asawin Suebsaeng and Prem Thakker say Trump is so desperate to finally be rid of the war he unilaterally began in February that he is wandering around the White House, bawling in panic that Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu is scheming to drag him back in.

“He’s swearing a lot about it,” one close Trump adviser told Zeteo. Another Trump administration official said: “[R]ight now, he’s definitely madder at the Israelis than the Iranians.”

The sources who’ve spoken to Trump over the past several days say Israel’s “continued attacks in Lebanon and Israeli leaders’ efforts to pressure the Americans into abandoning the memorandum of understanding with Iran have, in fact, further driven Trump in the opposite direction,” according to Zeteo, adding that “the president keeps venting to advisers how angry he is at Netanyahu and other political and media figures – in the U.S. and in Israel – for transparently trying to drag him back into war, or for suggesting that Trump is surrendering to Iran.”

But Trump is surrendering wholly to Iran, according to critics on both the Republican and Democratic side of the political spectrum.

As rising gas prices and inflation threatened to blast Republicans’ midterm chances Trump grabbed desperately for a memorandum of understanding that puts the Iranian regime in a stronger position than it was before Trump took it upon himself to invade. This includes even more reparations money, massive sanctions relief, and Iran's continued economic control over the Strait of Hormuz and the ability to extort fees from passing oil tankers.

Worse, the deal also helps “solidify [Iran's] international bragging rights for fighting off the mighty war machine of the world’s undisputed superpower,” wrote Suebsaeng and Thakker.

Despite his embarrassing MOU, however, Trump remains terrified of the alternative.

“What we have today is a quarrel between two like-minded, allied warmongers – it’s just that the American warmonger now seems to instinctively realize how badly his warmongering is politically destroying him and his party at home,” said the Zeteo authors.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment, but Suebsaeng and Thakker say Trump’s reticence has nothing to do with mercy and a fresh appreciation for peace.

“Trump, of course, is not mad at Israeli leadership out of any moral urgency or compunction. Trump, the ‘lazy warmonger,’ illegally started a regional bloodbath, and he and his administration own the carnage and the coming years of fallout forever,” the write.
