Trump in extraordinary break with Netanyahu as he slaps down bloody regime change plot with brutal warning
The Daily Mail ^ | 25 March 2026 | ROSS IBBETSON

Donald Trump has brutally slapped down Benjamin Netanyahu's push for the US to incite a bloody street revolution to topple the Iranian regime.

'Why the **** should we tell people to take to the streets when they'll just get mowed down,' Trump told Netanyahu during a call last week.

The call came just hours after Iran's security chief Ali Larijani was killed in an Israeli strike last Tuesday. Netanyahu told Trump the regime was in disarray and that there was a window for a popular uprising, a US official and Israeli source told Axios.

But Trump feared a massacre, mindful that thousands of Iranians had been slaughtered by paramilitary forces during anti-regime protests before the war.

Netanyahu and Trump agreed to wait and see if the Iranians would come out during the annual festival of fire without encouragement, a source said.

But Netanyahu proceeded anyway, stating on TV: 'Our aircraft are striking terrorist operatives ... This is meant to allow the brave Iranian people to celebrate the festival of fire. So go out and celebrate ... we are watching from above.'

The rupture lays bare a widening gap between the two leaders, with Washington quietly distancing itself from Jerusalem on regime change despite Trump urging a popular uprising when the war began.

Netanyahu has since secretly convened his generals and pushed for a 48-hour blitz on Iran's top targets, even as Trump moves to nail down a swift peace deal.

You mean Trump is his own man?!??

I figure Daily Mail has a lot of anti Israel followers to satisfy.

“Every President I worked for, at some point in his presidency, would get so pissed off at the Israelis that he couldn’t speak. It didn’t matter whether it was Jimmy Carter or Gerry Ford or Ronald Reagan or George Bush. Something would happen and they would just absolutely go screw themselves right into the ceiling they were so angry and they’d sort of rant and rave around the Oval Office. I think it was their frustration about knowing that there was so little they could do about it because of domestic politics and everything else that was so frustrating to them.”

— Robert M. Gates


Let’s hope Trump breaks with this convention as well.

Trump is Hitler. Of course Hitler is going to slap down the Jew. Or, as Hillary Gollum Clinton would call him, that effing Joo.

Trump “brutally”
Trump “fumes”
Trump “angry”

I’ve seen none of those qualities from Trump. Ok, he can be a little verbally brutal towards the enemies within, but Netanyahu isn’t really an enemy.

He wasn't calling for a regime change uprising, he was calling for the Iranian people to come out and celebrate their annual holiday of Nowruz.

If Friday’s deadline arrives with no substantial movement in the talks and trump grants another extension (i.e. Iran Delay), it will show a sign of weakness on Trump’s part and I will be pissed.

Now they claim otherwise? I guess I’ll have to turn to a *truly* trustworthy source - like MS.NOW!

An uprising needs a plan, a way to communicate it to the masses, time for the ideas to sink in and support to build, and leadership to drive all the above.

None of this exists in Iran nor does the infrastructure needed to create it. If Netanyahu doesn’t know this, he’s a fool.

US official and Israeli source? Has to be true then, don’t it? What is really happening is that the US (via General Cooper, Centcom, Pete Hegseth, Mossad, and many others have warned the Iranians everyday that THEY will tell them when to take to the streets. They are advising that they will say when. Netanyahu is taking care of Israel business and is doing what is right for HIS country. This is more stupid from writing from Londonistan.
