Former President Donald Trump is blaming President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for permitting Iran’s latest missile attacks on Israel. 

As reported by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), Iranian missiles have been intercepted across Israel, including in Jerusalem. 

Iran’s missile attacks follow Israel’s military operation against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. 

President Trump alleged via press release President Biden and Vice President Harris have “no idea what is even going on.”

The World is on fire and spiraling out of control. We have no leadership, no one running the Country,” continued Trump. “No one is in charge and it’s not even clear who is more confused: Biden or Kamala. Neither has any idea what is even going on.”

Trump further claimed his policies restricted Iran’s nefarious activities, which he contrasted with Iran’s increased anti-Western efforts during the Biden-Harris administration. 

“When I was President, Iran was in total check,” said Trump. “They were starved for cash, fully contained, and desperate to make a deal.”

Recent reports allege Iran has plotted to assassinate Trump, while US intelligence agencies have confirmed the former has been seeking to undermine Trump’s campaign in favor of Harris’. 

Meanwhile, Biden and Harris met in the White House to discuss “how the United States is prepared to help Israel defend against (Iran’s) attacks, and protect American personnel in the region.”

The US has expanded its military presence in the Middle East in an attempt to deter further Iranian attacks. 

While continuing to fight Hamas in Gaza, Israel has recently shifted military assets to Northern Israel to diminish Hezbollah’s capacity to inflict harm on Israeli civilians. 

Over the last few days, Israel has eliminated crucial Hezbollah weapons’ stockpiles and killed senior Hezbollah leaders, including its top leader Hassan Nasrallah.
