Trump Says Ceasefire is Over as U.S. Launches Massive Strikes | CBN NewsWatch - July 8, 2026

President Trump declares the ceasefire with Iran is “over,” adding, “As far as I’m concerned, it’s just a waste of time dealing with them. They’re liars;” Trump’s statements at the NATO summit in Turkey come after US strikes more than 80 Iranian targets after attacks on three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, which the US called a clear violation of the ceasefire; Iran threatens a “crushing response” and launches missiles at US military assets in Bahrain and Kuwait; Trump meets with Turkish President Erdogan at the summit, saying he’s leaning toward selling Turkey US F-35 fighter jets, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes, as he also says Turkey is infected with the  Muslim Brotherhood and a threat to Israel and Europe; Chris Mitchell talks about Israel’s reaction to Trump blasting Iran’s leaders and the US strikes, if Israel would be involved in strikes on Iran, if there’s hope in Israel that Trump will ‘finish the job’ with Iran, and Israel’s concerns about Turkey; Drew Parkhill and Chris Mitchell talk about the speech in Tel Aviv today by a major Democratic figure, Rahm Emanuel, on how US relations with Israel have to take a new direction, a new AP poll showing falling support for Israel among Americans, the Israeli reaction to that declining support, if Israelis see evangelical Christians as their most loyal supporters, the economic and financial market reaction to Trump’s statements about the end of the ceasefire, and if Israelis expect to get hit with Iranian attacks again; and how people can protect themselves from illnesses like Lyme disease, as tick-borne diseases are expected to hit their worst level in a decade.
