Trump Urges Israelis to Re-elect Netanyahu to Finish Job Against Iran

President Donald Trump urged Israelis to vote for Benjamin Netanyahu in Tuesday's election, saying the two leaders must "finish the job" against Iran, as polls show Netanyahu's coalition short of a majority. In a Truth Social post, Trump endorsed Netanyahu as an "outstanding Warrior Prime Minister," citing joint military operations including "Operation Midnight Hammer" and "Operation Epic Fury" that left Iran's military and economy weakened. Trump framed the election as a choice to continue their shared campaign against Tehran. The endorsement follows reported strains between the leaders over Iran strategy, including Trump's frustration with Netanyahu's promised quick victory and Washington's halt of its campaign for a deal. Trump has broken with precedent by publicly intervening in allied nations' elections.
