Former US President Donald Trump has suggested that Israel attack Iran's nuclear facilities. The Republican presidential candidate was speaking at a campaign rally in the southern state of North Carolina on Friday.

One participant asked Trump about countermeasures against Iran's recent missile attack on Israel. Trump criticized President Joe Biden for voicing opposition to Israel targeting Iran's nuclear sites.

The former president said Biden "got that one wrong." He added that Biden's answer should have been, "Hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later."

Trump loves a large-scale crime against humanity.

The Israelis are unlikely to enter a full-scale war with Iran. They'll instead try to get the US to commit war crimes on their behalf.

Uh, what? The whole point of this is that Israel is committing war crimes on behalf of the USA.

It's inspiring to see these zionists compete to be the most genocidal. \s
