Former U.S. Defense Secretary Says Netanyahu Repeatedly Lied About Iran Regime Collapse
May 24, 2026Former U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates delivered a withering, direct takedown of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Gates exposed how Netanyahu has spent decades pushing outright lies and farcical intelligence claims to U.S. presidents, falsely promising that a military strike on Iran would cause its regime to instantly crumble.
Gates detailed a high-stakes, tense meeting he held with Netanyahu in July 2009. Netanyahu tried to convince the Defense Secretary that the Iranian regime was so fragile that a foreign military strike would trigger an immediate internal overthrow by the public. Gates pushed back hard, telling Netanyahu his assessment was completely detached from reality.
Gates’ accounts confirm what leaked documents have shown for years: Netanyahu’s aggressive warmongering frequently contradicted Israel’s own intelligence agencies, with former Mossad chiefs openly admitting behind closed doors that Iran was nowhere near building an active weapon while Netanyahu screamed the opposite to Western media.
When top defense officials openly admit that a foreign leader has been lying to the U.S. government for decades to manipulate American military power, it isn’t diplomacy, it is a dangerous fraud. Robert Gates just confirmed what independent journalists have said all along: the push for war with Iran is built entirely on a mountain of lies.
EXPOSE THE WARMONGERS!
