The US VP has excoriated Israeli critics of the agreement, warning that “I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world,” Al Jazeera reports

Speaking to reporters from the White House, Vance says President Donald Trump is “the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time” and has chastised Israeli cabinet members that the majority of the Jewish State’s defensive weapons were provided through US funding.

“The problem for Israel is not Donald J Trump and anybody in Israel who thinks their biggest problem is the President of the United States needs to wake up and smell the reality of the situation that country is in,” Vance said.
