Trump tells The Post ‘I always knew the date’ for Israel attack on Iran

President Trump told The Post Friday that he knew Israel would strike Iran if the theocratic regime didn’t quickly agree to a revised nuclear deal with the US.

“I always knew the date,” the president said in a brief phone interview. “Because I know everything. I know everything. I know everything.

“I gave them 60 days and they didn’t meet it,” Trump went on. “Today’s 61, you know. Today’s day 61.”

The president had never publicly revealed the 60-day deadline — though its existence had been reported by Israeli media — until after Israel launched Thursday’s attack, and had been coy on whether he fully supported giving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the green light to strike.
