Netanyahu to Trump: 'We Have a Job to Finish' as Reports Signal More US Forces to #MiddleEast

"Donald, we have a job to finish. You said it, and we'll finish it together." Benjamin Netanyahu's words to Donald Trump on a call open a new Short from CBN News' Jerusalem Dateline, with reporter Paul Petitte narrating.

The call is only the start. A televised interview clip follows, carrying Hebrew subtitles and a Channel 14 news ticker. In it, Netanyahu describes what he has asked of Israel's security services: "And that is my directive to the IDF, the Mossad, and the intelligence agency, to overthrow this regime." His reason comes a few seconds later: "If we do not overthrow it, the cancer will grow again."

The report then turns to the American side. It cites reports that the Pentagon is sending a third aircraft carrier and thousands more troops to the region, and it mentions Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's visit to Israel. It also cites a Fox News report that opposition groups in southwestern Iran are attacking clerics linked to Tehran.

The second half moves through other stories. It covers U.S. support for Saudi Arabia without ground troops, arrests in Britain over alleged Iranian espionage near an airbase, and unrest in France over fuel costs and immigration. The segment closes on Trump recalling his advice to Emmanuel Macron to close France's borders.

The Short passed roughly 169,000 views in its first 13 hours, against a usual full first day of about 19,000 for the channel's Shorts. Its comment section moved faster still: more than 400 comments, compared with about 30 on a typical first day. Most of them argue over America's role in the conflict and who should pay for it.

It was not CBN's only fast start. A second Short, "Starlink Dispute, Church Destruction Complicate New Push to End Ukraine War," pairs Trump's pressure on Volodymyr Zelenskyy with a Russian strike that destroyed a prominent evangelical church. That combination of world news and the fate of churches is the beat the channel's about text describes as stories that matter to the global Christian community.
