President Trump announced a ceasefire deal between Israel and Iran, expressing disappointment after both sides reportedly violated it shortly after the announcement. His frustration was particularly directed at Israel, which he accused of conducting intense military strikes on Tehran immediately after the ceasefire was brokered. Political analyst Trita Parsi observed that Trump's eagerness for a ceasefire is influenced by concerns over its impact on his political support. Additionally, Parsi warned about the broader implications of the collapsing Non-Proliferation Treaty, potentially incentivizing nations like Iran to develop their own nuclear weapons.
Part of the reason why Trump also was quite eager to get to a ceasefire, why he's so frustrated with what the Israelis are doing right now, is precisely because he's very much aware of the strain that all of this has caused within his own support base.
Israel, as soon as we made the deal, they came out, and they dropped a load of bombs the likes of which I've never seen before, the biggest load that we've seen. I'm not happy with Israel.
