Let’s trust Lebanese officials ? Lol

Again, you have posted a misleading headline. Way to go BI. He said that he has Generals in the US Military, that have told him it looks like an attack. Question: Why was that not your headline? It is almost like you have an agenda...

Sigh. Of course he did. 🙄

He knows more than anybody 🤥

Always trust DonaldTrump to stir confusion and misdemeanour around something, distracting focus from those affected by it and instead directing attention to a wild goose chase which the press will follow blindly over some days until they find out... Nothing.

Worst asshole ever.

Halah looks like we kok
