The Washington Post is reporting that one of the things that led to the ouster of Mike Waltz as President Trump’s National Security Advisor was a meeting with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu about coordinating a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities:

But Waltz also upset Trump after an Oval Office visit in early February by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, when the national security adviser appeared to share the Israeli leader’s conviction that the time was ripe to strike Iran, two of the people said.

Waltz appeared to have engaged in intense coordination with Netanyahu about military options against Iran ahead of an Oval Office meeting between the Israeli leader and Trump, the two people said.

Waltz “wanted to take U.S. policy in a direction Trump wasn’t comfortable with because the U.S. hadn’t attempted a diplomatic solution,” according to one of the people.

“It got back to Trump and the president wasn’t happy with it,” that person said.

 
But Netanyahu says it never happened, according to the Times of Israel:

The Prime Minister’s Office denies a Washington Post report released earlier today that claimed Benjamin Netanyahu had “intensive contact” with former US national security adviser Mike Waltz on possible military options against Iran’s nuclear program ahead of a meeting with President Donald Trump in February.

“PM Netanyahu had a warm meeting with Mike Waltz and Steve Witkoff at Blair House in February prior to the Prime Minister’s meeting with President Trump at the White House,” the PMO says.

“Mike Waltz also joined VP JD Vance in a meeting with the PM before leaving Washington. Since then, the PM, the former National Security Advisor and Steve Witkoff had one phone conversation that did not deal with Iran. We congratulate Mr. Waltz on his important appointment to the UN.”
