leaders were surprised by the US president\u2019s request and stayed silent on the call, prompting Trump to jokingly ask if the leaders were still there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The Abraham Accords, brokered by the first Trump administration, sought to normalize relations between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/israel\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Israel<\/a> and some Arab and Muslim nations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">During Saturday\u2019s call with the leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates,

have diplomatic relations with Israel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The Trump-brokered accords between Israel, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates, \u201cproved to be dangerously counterproductive, with Israeli-Gulf military cooperation leading to more risky and provocative behavior\u201d, according to a recent <a

diplomat, who is also <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong>\u2019s national security adviser, that the first wave of strikes was launched by the US and Israel on \u201ca Saturday in Iran in the morning when millions of children were at school.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThere is media analysis that 22 schools at least were damaged either that day or in the following weeks,\u201d the reporter added. \u201cWhat do you say to those who will accuse the administration of unleashing a reckless action because of when this war was begun?<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Rubio avoided responding directly to the question, but instead attacked the questioner for not framing the US bombing campaign as a response to what he called terrorism linked to Iran\u2019s government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cI\u2019m not going to speak to military tactics simply because that\u2019s not my department,\u201d Rubio said. \u201cI will say this to you: when we when this conflict began with Iran, the goals were outlined and they were very simple. They were very clear. We were going to destroy their navy, which we\u2019ve done. We were going to significantly reduce their ability \u2026 to launch ballistic missiles because that was the conventional shield they were trying to hide behind. And we\u2019ve achieved that objective. And we were going to do damage to the defense industrial base so they couldn\u2019t rebuild all of these things. We\u2019ve achieved that as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThose were the targets of our operation and that\u2019s what they were targeted on,\u201d the secretary of state said. \u201cOn the other hand, Iran likes to sponsor proxy groups of terrorists and these terrorists don\u2019t care what they blow up. They blow up anything and everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThis is an Iran that not long ago through their Hezbollah proxies blew up a Jewish center in Argentina and killed a bunch of people,\u201d Rubio went on, apparently referring to a terrorist attack in Buenos Aires that took place 32 years ago, in 1994.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">He went on to describe the use of roadside bombs to kill or maim US troops in Iraq as terrorism, although attacks on soldiers do not meet <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.nytimes.com\/thelede.blogs.nytimes.com\/2009\/11\/20\/define-terrorism\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">the definition of terrorism<\/a> used by most experts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThere is no nation on earth that sponsors more terrorism than Iran,\u201d he added. \u201cThey\u2019ve spent not they\u2019ve spent millions and millions of dollars sponsoring terrorism and targeting individuals all over the world and including civilians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThat\u2019s what you should be asking me about,\u201d Rubio told Bateman. \u201cThat\u2019s what the BBC should be covering. And that\u2019s what these other media outlets should be covering is how evil these people are in Iran and the damage they\u2019ve done to people all over the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<footer
