“I always knew the date.” Trump admits foreknowledge of Israeli strike on Iran
In a jaw-dropping admission to the New York Post, Donald Trump boasted that he “always knew the date” of Israel’s recent attack on Iran. “I know everything,” he added with his signature bravado.
Trump, who just weeks ago was posturing as a peacemaker, suggesting he could stop global conflicts "in 24 hours", has now publicly aligned himself with a covert military strike that escalated tensions in the Middle East.
This was not just an Israeli move. Trump's words point to a joint U.S.-Israeli operation. And it raises uncomfortable, urgent questions:
How deeply involved was the U.S. government in planning and greenlighting this operation?
Was this foreknowledge shared with Congress? With the American public?
And what exactly did Trump mean by “I know everything”?
Most critically, it reveals a deeper contradiction in Trump’s narrative. While publicly claiming he seeks peace and stability, privately, and now, openly, he’s celebrating involvement in a surprise military escalation.
This isn’t just reckless bravado. It’s a window into how foreign policy is being shaped behind closed doors, with no accountability, no transparency, and total disregard for democratic oversight.
Peace was never in the plan
