(Gray News) – Former President Donald Trump said that Iran’s attack on Israel wouldn’t have happened if he were still in the White House, according to a social media post.

“ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK,” Trump said on his platform, Truth Social.

He continued saying, “This should never have been allowed to happen. This would NEVER have happened if I were President!’

Trump’s post comes after Iran launched over 200 missiles and drones toward Israel Saturday night.

According to the Associated Press, this is the first time Iran has launched a direct military attack on Israel since dating back to the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution.

In another post, Trump also alleged that President Biden taped an address regarding the Iran attack, rather than doing it LIVE.

“HE’LL NOW ATTEMPT TO DO IT LIVE, PROBABLY TOMORROW. HE DOESN’T WANT TO LEAVE HIS HOUSE, WITH THE CORVETTE, IN DELAWARE!!!” Trump wrote.

President Biden had to cut his Delaware weekend short in anticipation of Iran’s attack.

So far, the U.S. has sent direct messages to Tehran to warn against further escalating the conflict.
