In the wake of President-Elect Trump’s clear victory on Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu was the first foreign leader out of the gate to get in contact with America’s next Commander in Chief. Bibi knows his man. It was the right thing for him to do.

My guess is that Trump told Netanyahu, “Bibi, do whatever you have to do to finish this up by January 20th”. These are Biden wars. Biden’s war in Ukraine, Biden’s war in the Middle East. Trump wants them off the table more than he wants anything else.

But I do think somebody ought to finish the job and destroy Iran’s nuclear weapons program. If it’s Israel, that’s great.

The axis that’s growing (and quite strong now) between China and Russia shows that all these conflicts we are seeing are related. And the fact that North Korean troops are now fighting for Russia in Ukraine should really wake everyone in Europe up to the threat that is this axis.
