and Trump's gut is really unreliable.

Meanwhile, Bibi was probably whispering to him behind the scenes, "Just say 'Iran is on the verge of building a nuclear weapon in the next few weeks'. Hey Donald, I've been using that one for over two decades and it STILL sells." Besides once it is determined not to be true, it is too late. The deed is done and people have already forgotten the justification for the bombings.
