The Trump admin's "masterclass" in Middle East diplomacy:  
Claiming total control while being blindsided by allies.  
That Gaza Catholic church bombing? A sacrament of strategic failure.  

Axios reports White House officials privately call Netanyahu a "madman" bombing "everything all the time" - yet publicly Trump praises him. Israeli strikes in Syria (July 15) & Gaza (July 17) directly undermined U.S. goals to end the war & stabilize Syria. Special envoy Barrack admits Israel's actions "came at very bad time," exposing the reactive chaos.  

When your "strongest ally" becomes your greatest liability, the architect deserves blame.
