An Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) lieutenant colonel who was in the meetings when the attack on Iran was being planned says media claims that the U.S. was dragged into the war by Israel are “completely false.”
In an interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, IDF Spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani debunked the myth perpetrated by liberal legacy media:
“I can say, as someone who’s been in the inner rooms with the IDF, that is not a real claim. It’s not close to the truth.”
…
“I can explicitly say, since I’m an IDF spokesperson, knowing we’ve been planning for weeks and months, saying that Israel decided to attack alone and the U.S. was dragged into it is just completely false.”
“That is not a real claim. It’s not close to the truth,” Shoshani reiterated.
“Being in the rooms, knowing what’s been happening in recent weeks and months, it has no relation to reality,” LTC Shoshani said, stressing that Iran poses a serious threat to both the U.S. and Israel:
“This is a joint operation with a mutual enemy, shared interests, share values, shared enemy.
“When they yell ‘Death to America,’ they yell ‘Death to Israel.’ When they yell ‘Death to Israel,’ they yell ‘Death to America.’”
“America is not one to be dragged by Israel,” the IDF spokesman said.
As NewsBusters has reported, liberal media ranging from ABC to CNN have maliciously misrepresented and edited comments by Secretary of State Marco Rubio in order to dupe Americans into believing that Rubio claimed the U.S. had been dragged into the war with Iran.
