Trump unleashes expletive-laden birthday tirade at Netanyahu and claims he has ‘no judgment’ in extraordinary outburst

US President Donald Trump once again expressed his great disappointment towards the leader of Israel, one of America’s closest allies, who was preparing to celebrate his birthday at the White House.

According to Axios reporter Barak Ravid, Trump, who turns 80 today, claimed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ‘no judgment’.

Ravid also said in X that President Trump asked him, “Why did Bibi have to attack?” he claimed to have said. I was so angry. I informed him. He has no judgment. I reported this to him.’

Trump also said Sunday that the signing of a U.S.-Iran agreement to end the war was still on track, despite Israel’s attack on Beirut and Iran’s threat of retaliation, Ravid said.

The Israeli military said earlier in the day that Hezbollah fired three missiles at communities in northern Israel, describing the attack as a blatant violation of the ceasefire.

‘They responded by attacking on Sunday’According to Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, terrorist targets of the Hezbollah terrorist organization in Beirut’s Dahiye neighborhood in response to Hezbollah opening fire on Israeli territory.

Following the attack, the US President said on the Truth Social platform: ‘The attack on Beirut this morning should not have happened, especially on a special day when we are so close to a Peace Agreement with Iran.

‘Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack it responded to was so small and meaningless, no one was injured, injured or killed, and this important process should not be disrupted.

‘We are very close to an agreement that will bring peace to the region, including Lebanon, and all parties must step back.’ Just as Israel should not attack anywhere in Lebanon again, there should also be no attacks against Israel by any other party, including Hezbollah.

‘This could be the beginning of a long and beautiful peace – Let’s not ruin it! Thank you for your interest in this matter.’

Netanyahu’s office had previously said that the Israeli army ‘launched an attack on terrorist targets belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization in the Dahiyeh district of Beirut in response to Hezbollah’s fire on Israeli territory’.

The Israeli army added that it “definitely hit” a Hezbollah infrastructure facility in Dahiyeh, a southern suburb of Beirut that is considered a stronghold of the militant group.

Hezbollah has not yet commented on Israel’s statement. However, the group said it had launched missiles and drones at Israeli troops in southern Lebanon.

Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA) reported that an attack hit an apartment in the Ghobeiry neighborhood in Beirut’s southern suburbs.

Images taken from the scene showed clouds of smoke and dust rising over the area, while debris was scattered on nearby streets as residents searched after the incident.

Israeli officials, including Netanyahu, have repeatedly warned that Israel would target Beirut’s southern suburbs if Hezbollah attacked northern Israeli communities.
