MAGA tears itself apart over Iran as Steve Bannon unloads on Bibi for dragging America into war: 'Who the hell are you?'
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon pivoted his criticism away from President Donald Trump and aimed it toward Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu as the president weighs further military action against Iran. Bannon lambasted the Israeli government for pushing Trump to get involved in the goal of 'regime change' in Iran and trying to manipulate the American people into support of further military strikes in Iran. 'Who in the hell are you to lecture the American people? Who are you to lecture the American people?' Bannon said angrily on his War Room podcast. He demanded that Netanyahu do more to 'finish the job' to destroy Iran's nuclear capacities. 'The American people are not going to tolerate it. Not going to put up with it. Who are you to jam us into this situation which you knew you couldn't finish the job, or if you can, go finish it!' he announced. In recent days, Netanyahu has pressed Trump and his MAGA allies for more support, speaking to the media about the importance of getting the United States further involved with the war against the 'evil' in Iran. 'Today, it's Tel Aviv. Tomorrow, it's New York. Look, I understand "America First" I don't understand "America Dead,"' he said on ABC News on Sunday. Bannon said that it was the Israeli's responsibly to conclude the war, and expressed frustration that they had no problem starting the conflict. 'Go finish it! Quit coming to us to finish it. President Trump may come to that conclusion, but it's not something he would just say… 'Oh yeah, let's go bomb 'em and take care of it,"' he said. 'He's going to do it because he's got to weigh the options now that you've gotten us into it. That's reality. That's the truth. That's exactly where we are and people should be truthful with each other, particularly in these tough decisions,' he said. 'That's what allies do. Allies don't manipulate and don't inextricably draw people into situations of which the other party has to get them out of,' he continued. On his show, Bannon questioned the timing of the military strikes on Iran, asking the Israelis why it had to be now. He demanded Netanyahu show their intelligence that proved the Iranians were on the cusp of obtaining a nuclear weapon. 'Why did you start something that you couldn't finish?' he asked. Bannon told his viewers that Trump was facing enormous pressure to get involved in the war. 'The pressure on President Trump is coming from the outside and it's coming from people who are not straight with him,' he said. He conceded that Trump could conclude that military action was necessary but that it was important to detail the reasons why they had to do it. 'We have enough faith in President Trump and his judgement that he will come to the right conclusion, but we have to get all the cards on the table,' he concluded.

Editorial: Iran's nukes must be destroyed — Israel's mission will help the whole world
Promising an apocalypse by the ayatollahs who were getting ever closer to obtaining a nuclear weapon to carry out that diabolical wish, Israel had every right to hit Iran to disable its uranium enrichment facilities and its ballistic missile infrastructure. The Friday strikes were not the start of a war by Israel, but hopefully the first blows in a finale to end forever the Iranian nukes and the threat to wipe the Jewish state off the map and kill millions of Jews. Also successfully targeted were the top leadership of the Iranian military and the fanatical Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the regime's nuclear scientists. The day before, on Thursday, in Vienna the 35-nation Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency ruled that Iran was not complying with its nuclear nonproliferation obligations and censured the Islamic Republic. The resolution was sponsored by France, the United Kingdom, Germany and the U.S. The only no votes on the measure to condemn Iran for refusing inspections and accountability to the IAEA were, of course, Russia and China, along with Burkina Faso, an unstable African dictatorship. Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu says that Israel has no quarrel with the people of Iran. When those people are freed from the oppressive theocratic tyranny of the mullahs, bringing in democracy, they will have no desire to have nukes. That is exactly what happened when democracy came to Brazil and Argentina and South Africa. In each case, the new democratic leaders voluntarily got rid of the nuclear weapons programs of the previous regimes. Iran, blessed by nature with 200 billion proven barrels of oil (the third largest reserves in the world behind Venezuela and Saudi Arabia) and sitting on top of 34 trillion cubic meters of natural gas (only second to Russia) has more energy than it can ever use. Yet they have a phony pursuit of 'peaceful' nuclear power. But unlike hydro, solar, wind, geothermal and other alternative energy sources, only nuclear can be fashioned into offensive weapons of mass destruction. Iran wants nuclear weapons, not nuclear energy. And Iran can't have nuclear weapons. In zapping Iran's generals and scientists with Mossad agents on the ground and fighter jets and blasting uranium enrichment plants and Iran's ballistic missiles and air defense network, Israel's Operation Rising Lion was precise. Yet Iran's response, to lob drones and missiles and rockets anywhere they could, is just terrorism, hitting civilian, not military, targets. Until recently, Iran could rely on its terror puppets in Hezbollah and Hamas and Syria to attack Israel during a confrontation, but those puppets are all gone now, defanged and destroyed. Rather it is the U.S. which is assisting Israel to knock down the Iranian drones and missiles as Israelis hide in bomb shelters. But at least the Israelis are not sheltering from nuclear weapons, which could have been a nightmare if the Iran nuke program produced a working warhead. Iran should still show up in Oman tomorrow to meet U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff in previously scheduled talks on nukes. Iran should shut down their damaged nuke program and rejoin the community of nations. _____

'We're going to find out pretty soon. We're going to know pretty soon.''They're not in good shape,' he added of the hostages. 'Some of them are in better shape than others. A little bit depends on the place where they are, but we'll be working with [Israel] to get them.'
