Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said late Wednesday that President Donald Trump is implementing, point by point, the plan Bennett wrote in 2022 to weaken the Iranian regime. Bennett made the claim on social media, asserting that the plan he drafted and later deleted is now being executed by the Trump administration.
Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said late Wednesday that President Donald Trump is implementing, one-to-one, the plan Bennett wrote in 2022 to weaken the Iranian regime. Bennett made the statement on social media, adding that he had deleted the plan. The claim adds a new dimension to Bennett's ongoing critique of Israeli policy toward Iran. As The Zioneer has reported, Bennett has previously argued that Israel has a strategic plan to topple the Iranian regime, and that his own 2022 plan would have boosted the chances of regime collapse. Trump has also made statements about regime change in Iran, including saying he believes there will be regime change. Bennett's latest claim asserts a direct link between his past planning and current U.S. actions.
