Trump says he wants Israel to 'use good judgment' in Lebanon
Asked about whether he wants Israel to stop bombing Lebanon, President Donald Trump told reporters, "I want Israel to be able to protect itself, but I do want them to use good judgment."
On Tuesday, Trump said he was “not happy” with Israel’s recent attack on an apartment building in Beirut.
"Israel is fighting Hezbollah too long, and too many people are being killed, and you don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you're looking for somebody, because there are a lot of people in those apartment houses, and they're not all Hezbollah,” he said.
“I suggested to Israel to let Syria take care of Hezbollah,” Trump added.
Trump added that he still enjoys “a great relationship” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“Without me, there would be no Israel, because no other president was willing to do what I did. I've had a great relationship with Bibi, but now Bibi has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon,” Trump said, of Netanyahu.
