Eylon Levy: "No One Tells Trump What To Do" | How Israel & US Took Out Iran's Nuclear Threat

Did Netanyahu drag Trump into war with Iran — or was this always America's fight too? Eylon Levy, former Israeli government spokesman and one of the most recognised voices from Israel's wartime media operation, sits down with Harry Cole to set the record straight. Levy is unequivocal: "It was Israel that took out the Ayatollah, not the United States. No one tells Trump what to do." But he also makes clear why the US had every reason to act — Iran was racing toward nuclear invulnerability, burying missile factories so deep that time was running out to stop them. With four times the missiles and a nuclear bomb, says Levy, "no one could stop them." So the US and Israel moved together — not as puppet and master, but as allies with shared interests. The problem? The job isn't finished. Despite Trump's claim that Iran's nuclear programme was "obliterated," Levy reveals Iran still holds 400 kilos of highly enriched uranium — enough for a dirty bomb. And they were rebuilding, faster than ever. The war's shockwaves aren't staying in the Middle East. The Strait of Hormuz is closed, oil prices are surging, and inflation is spreading west. Levy's verdict is stark: "Iran declared war on all global consumers." This isn't just a regional conflict — it's hitting your petrol pump and your grocery bill. Harry Cole and Levy also dig into the 'Inglourious Basterds'-style operations hunting Iranian regime fugitives, the geopolitical fallout, and what comes next for the region and the West.
