'Total victory' over Iran war in 2 weeks says Trump amid talks with Netanyahu about ceasef

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s open defiance in striking Iran against President Trump’s demands for a ceasefire adds to growing divisions between the U.S. and Israel over the way forward on the war in the Middle East.

Trump has increasingly demonstrated open frustration with Netanyahu as he seeks to broker a deal to end the Iran war, reportedly cursing at the Israeli leader for escalating hostilities in Lebanon last week and reportedly telling Netanyahu on a telephone call Sunday not to retaliate against Iranian drone strikes.
