Mark Caputo, I'm a senior political writer and White House correspondent for Axios.
Over the weekend, President Trump was hopeful that he was close to a deal, a peace deal with Iran.
And behind the scenes, according to some of our administration sources, Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister Netanyahu, had been advocating to have Lebanon as sort of part of the peace deal.
But President Trump thought that that was sort of too many moving parts.
Well,
next thing everyone knows on Sunday, Netanyahu unleashes a pretty ferocious attack on Hezbollah and Lebanon.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his defense minister announced that they had ordered the military to strike Beirut.
And Iran then says, we're done talking about a peace deal.
You know, it's sort of a little bit of kabuki that they do.
And Trump got very angry, picked up the phone, and according to our sources, really lit in to Prime Minister Netanyahu.
He says, you know, what the fuck are you doing?
We were told, Trump said to Netanyahu, you're fucking crazy.
You'd be in prison if it weren't for me.
I'm saving your ass.
Everybody hates you now.
Everybody hates Israel because of this.
And Trump also had told Netanyahu that you just got to stop.
You've got to stop.
After that call, Netanyahu did signal he was going to scale it back a little, but not completely.
And now there's allegedly some sort of detente.
