The secret phone call that started the war in the Middle East. What Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu discussed

The American president Donald Trump was tempted to attack Iran before receiving information about a secret meeting of the supreme leader Ali Khamenei.

The decisive moment was a conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on February 23, which led to the coordination of actions between the two countries. Although the attack was planned, the decision was postponed due to new information and unfavorable weather conditions.

On the day of the attack, the CIA confirmed that Khamenei and his advisors were together, and Trump gave the final order for the bombing. The war began on February 28, when Khamenei was killed.

Despite failed negotiations with Iran, Trump believed that the attack was necessary, and American officials were taken by surprise by the speed of the actions. Trump insisted that he was the one who forced Israel to act, not the other way around.
