Zeteo writers Asawin Suebsaeng and Prem Thakker say<\/a> Trump<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s swearing a lot about it,\u201d one close Trump adviser told Zeteo. Another Trump administration official said: \u201c[R]ight now, he\u2019s definitely madder at the Israelis than the Iranians.\u201d<\/p>\n

The sources who\u2019ve spoken to Trump over the past several days say Israel\u2019s \u201ccontinued attacks in Lebanon and Israeli leaders\u2019 efforts to pressure the Americans into abandoning the memorandum of understanding with Iran have, in fact, further driven Trump in the opposite<\/em> direction,\u201d according to Zeteo, adding that \u201cthe president keeps venting to advisers how angry he is at Netanyahu and other political and media figures \u2013 in the U.S. and in Israel \u2013 for transparently trying to drag him back into war, or for suggesting that Trump is surrendering to Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Trump is surrendering wholly to Iran, according to critics<\/a> on both the Republican and Democratic side of the political spectrum.<\/p>\n

As rising gas prices and inflation threatened<\/a> to blast Republicans\u2019 midterm chances Trump grabbed desperately for a memorandum of understanding that puts the Iranian regime in a stronger<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

Worse, the deal also helps \u201csolidify [Iran’s] international bragging rights for fighting off the mighty war machine of the world\u2019s undisputed superpower,\u201d wrote Suebsaeng and Thakker.<\/p>\n

Despite his embarrassing MOU, however, Trump remains terrified of the alternative.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we have today is a quarrel between two like-minded, allied warmongers \u2013 it\u2019s just that the American warmonger now seems to instinctively realize how badly his warmongering is politically destroying him and his party at home,\u201d said the Zeteo authors.<\/p>\n

The White House did not respond to a request for comment, but Suebsaeng and Thakker say Trump\u2019s reticence has nothing to do with mercy and a fresh appreciation for peace.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump, of course, is not mad at Israeli leadership out of any moral urgency or compunction. Trump, the \u2018lazy warmonger,\u2019 illegally started a regional bloodbath, and he and his administration own the carnage and the coming years of fallout forever,\u201d they write.<\/p>\n
