US President Donald Trump told his advisors that no one can handle Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to The Wall Street Journal citing a source familiar with the comments.
The president added that the US president indicated that Netanyahu wants to “bomb everyone”.
Trump also told the paper that he finds Netanyahu “great”, but that “sometimes he gets carried away”.
One senior administration official said that Trump’s calls with the Israeli premier usually revolved around Netanyahu calling for more military action, adding that the US leader had grown tired of it.
“Bibi tells the president why he needs to blow something up, and why Israeli intelligence knows how to do it, and when to do it, and the president listens,” the official said. “The calls are usually the same.”
