Summary
After Israel launched strikes on Iran for the first time since April – against US wishes – are the cracks beginning to show between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu? The episode is another sign of the growing friction between the US and Israeli leaders, following reports of heated disagreements behind closed doors. Is Washington’s influence over Israel starting to wane? And as Netanyahu ramps up his military ambitions in the Middle East, who is really calling the shots when it comes to the Iran war? Jonathan Samuels speaks to Sky’s Middle East Correspondent Adam Parsons in Jerusalem. Have you got a question for the show? Email us: [email protected]
