And now that the war has actually started and the U.S, by default, is ankle and soon to be neck deep in it, suddenly all the definitive (and B.S.) claims Bibi made about how Iran was literally just seconds away from producing a series of nuclear bombs that ole Major T.J. King Kong himself would've been proud to ride have evaporated. Coincidence? Nah.

Now his singular focus is on "regime change", which was Bibi's goal all along, and one that would've been impossible to pursue with the U.S. actively negotiating with Iran.
