How Trump ruled Middle East policy in the first five months

NewYou can listen to Fox News articles now!
Even his worst critic, President Donald Trump has ruled international and national activities since returning to office five months ago.
His “superbrightness” was simply outstanding in the third round of the Iran-Israel War. History will be recorded.
You might have attended or watched the Army’s birthday parade or “King No” rally, or just watched the U.S. Open on Father’s Day, but what will be the history of the weekend events?
President Trump controls events in the Middle East and does it with extraordinary skills.
Experts say
Israel’s most serious analyst agrees. For example, Israel’s Channel 12’s Amit Segal is an anchor, journalist and analyst along the line of Bret Baier in the United States – Segal and others believe President Trump’s green light for the Iranian prime minister in the third round of the past 14 months.
Iran directly participated in Israel’s 10/7 Long War directly on April 13, 2024, and again launched hundreds of missiles and bombs through many attempted delivery mechanisms for Israeli civilians on October 1 of that year. The IDF (“IDF”) intercepted the two waves of attacks with the assistance of other allies of the United States and Jewish states, with Israel absorbing some damage and loss of life while others were injured. Israel responded with a smaller but very precise counterattack, damaging Iran’s air defense and sending out information about Israel’s capabilities. President Biden and his team work to limit two additional escalations in Israel.
After 10/7, when Israel was involved, Iran began to rush to turn its abundant uranium weapons into nuclear weapons. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued an order in November and a few days before November, shortly after President Trump won Israel’s victory in November.
But Netanyahu still needs at least President Trump’s default approval, and after the 60-day window that Trump has given Iranian theocraticism expired, he conducted strict negotiations on Iran’s theocraticism and serious negotiations on the plan to dismantle his nuclear weapons.
Iran is trying to play the president, which is a mistake in historic proportions. Now, a story about Iran’s desperate efforts to stop Israel’s tough efforts toward the theocracy regime is spreading, which has ruled Iran since 1979, the first Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran and now Ayatollah Khamenei. These two dictators are responsible for all the ruins of Iran now and for the past 46 years. Now, the aging and apparently incompetent fanatic Khamenei is allowed to survive to see his crazy destruction. He may not live to see the overthrow of the regime, but he can. Because Donald Trump told him what he had to do and not only did he refuse, he repeatedly laughed at Trump and threatened the United States
Khamenei spent decades and billions of dollars in Hezbollah, Hamas, Syria’s Assad regime, Yemen’s Hussets and some Iraqi militias in an attempt to in vainly intimidate Israel, thereby preventing its strike-breaking Iranian nuclear facilities from opening.
Kameni was also suspected of attempting to assassinate Trump and other U.S. officials when the mastermind of the Iranian international terrorist network landed in Iraq on January 3, 2020 to kill more Americans. (The Islamic Republic of Iran directly caused the killing of thousands of Americans, the injury and hostages caused by the Iranian Shah in 1979.)
For five months, Trump told Israel from Gaza to “don’t attack Rafa” and “keep moving forward and strike Iran. They refuse to negotiate in good faith.” Netanyahu didn’t or needed or asked a second time. Moreover, with the support of Israeli military leaders for the strikes, the IDF agreed to rise and strike.
Trump has always maintained a “smart ambiguity” about his role. This is significant and unprecedented.
A long time ago, Sir John Lawrence’s name should be mentioned here. Lawrence was the governor of England and the governor of India from 1864-1869 and used the term “smart invalidity” to summarize his policy to Afghanistan, which was related to Lord Salisbury’s long and successful term as Prime Minister of Great Britain, serving as the highest level of Kjng doment the Empire and ultimately the highest level of empire among the top British officials.
Salisbury has adopted Lawrence’s approach again and again. Trump may not be able to introduce the details of the action of the great powers in the late 19th century, but he certainly knows how to play the new “great game” in the 21st century.
Trump proposed to mediate peace everywhere and throughout the world. He also always tells our enemies not to kill or hurt Americans, otherwise they will feel the full strength of the American military. And he knows, as only very experienced real estate developers do, when to make an offer, when to extract or regulate them, and when to walk away.
“negotiations” have been held between the Iranian representatives and special envoy Witkoff over the past 60 days, which is a real window for Iran to avoid punishment now being taken by Israel. Trump has proposed sending Witkov again, and now, if they resume, the U.S. will have much greater leverage on these conversations. President Trump has allowed Israel to lower Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile program for weeks, which could damage its energy export lifeline if Tehran continues to target Israeli civilians. He didn’t say so publicly, but he warned Khamenei could be hit.

Trump is a master. He basically sent a message to the “border closing” and talked to it as closed. He is now communicating criminals to millions of immigrants who crossed open borders in the Biden era to escape or be arrested. He called the Congressional Republicans to get “A, Big Beautiful Bill”, HR 1 finished and finished.
He sent pride to the U.S. military through his military’s birthday parade, best understood as part of our nation’s 250 birthday celebration, which climaxed on July 4, 2026.

Trump lives in the mind of his opponent. The absurdity of the “King Without” Theater is just the latest example of how the Democratic left dominates it, and even lacks a basic political grasp of most of the country. Most elected Trump in a vast majority and overwhelming manner, both of which support government enforcement at all levels and condemn political violence, both from the left and the far right. (Trump’s condemnation of Minnesota killers is quick, complete. As someone who has been targeted at least twice, what I expect is.)
Trump has 43 months left to serve as president. I hope they are as successful as his first five months.
