President Trump praised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel as a “war hero” for ordering his country’s forces to bombard Iran’s nuclear sites — and then said that the same label should apply to himself, the New York Times reports.
Said Trump: “He’s a war hero, because we work together. He’s a war hero. I guess I am too,” he added.
Applegrove: someone tell the war hero that people who give arms to a country that is starving another, don't get the Nobel Prize.
