President Donald Trump described himself and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as "war heroes" during an appearance on Mark Levin's show, citing his authorization of U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. Trump stated, "He's a war hero... I guess I am too," emphasizing his role in ordering the attacks. The remarks have drawn attention amid ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Trump also commented on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, asserting that while firefighters are considered heroes in broader society, Palestinian society venerates those who kill Jews. Separately, criticisms have emerged regarding Netanyahu's stance on 9/11 and his perceived disregard for American lives.
