Trump fumes at NetYahoo in call on Lebanon.
Go a little bit lower, Rob, so I can read the whole thing.
So President Trump last Saturday over Israel escalation in Lebanon and an expletive Latin call on Monday.
Two U.S.
officials and a third source briefed on the call told Axios why it matters early on Monday.
Iran threatened to abandon negotiations with the U.S.
over Israel, saying actions in Lebanon.
On the call, Trump called Netanyahu crazy and accused him of ingratitude, according to two of the sources.
He also put the brakes on Israel's plan to strike Beirut.
Behind the scenes, one U.S.
official said,
told Bibi that following through on his threat to bomb Lebanese capital would further isolate Israel from around the world.
Two of the sources said Trump claimed he'd help keep Netanyahu out of jail.
