Netanyahu did not tell Trump that Israel’s present preference was to launch more attacks on Iran, the official said in comments to reporters after the meeting. ADVERTISEMENTIn the end, it’s his decision, the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said of Trump. The official also said Trump was the “senior partner” and Netanyahu the “junior partner” in the allies’ confrontation with Iran. Israel sees Iran’s nuclear programme as its greatest threat and wants to make sure Tehran never acquires a nuclear bomb, the official said. Iran said it had retaliated by striking US bases in Jordan and targeting vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
