'If Israel can't do the job without killing everyone, Syria should do it,' Trump warns on Lebanon

Former US President Donald Trump has suggested that Syria should take over the fight against Hezbollah in Lebanon if Israel is unable to achieve its objectives without causing widespread civilian casualties. Trump made these remarks during a meeting with the Emir of Qatar, framing the conflict as a minor one where Syria could potentially partner with the United States.

If Israel can't do the job without killing everyone else, Syria should do the job.

While expressing that he has a "great relationship" with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump criticized a recent Israeli attack, deeming it "too much." He emphasized his crucial role in supporting Israel, stating, "Without the United States, there would be no Israel. Without me, there would be no Israel." He urged Netanyahu to be more responsible in his approach to Lebanon.

“

No, we have a great relationship.

I didn't like that he did an attack [over] a very minor little thing with some drones. I saw that attack, I saw where that bomb went. That was a vicious... that was too much. You can do too much also.
