  • Dan Bilzerian is happy Iran is firing missiles at Israel
  • Israel and the United States think Iran is nearing the completion of nuclear weapons
  • Some Democrats say Trump overstepped his presidential authority in bombing Iran’s nuclear sites

Dan Bilzerian, a poker aficionado and the self-proclaimed “King of Instagram,” has long denied the Holocaust. The son of an Armenian father, an ethnic group of people who underwent genocide during World War I at the hands of the Young Turks during the Ottoman Empire, Bilzerian believes much of the Jewish loss of life during World War II came from illness and malnutrition — not gas chambers.

A foe of the Israeli state, Bilzerian took to his social media channels, where he has tens of millions of followers, to express his delight in Iran’s retaliation against Israel after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu launched a surprise attack on Iran on claims that it was nearing completion of nuclear weapons.

Washington-based human rights activists based in Iran say 722 people in Iran have been killed since Israel launched its “Operation Rising Lion” campaign. Reports suggest that Iran has fired over 450 missiles at Israel in retaliation.

Bilzerian Glad Israel Being Retaliated Against 

As Israelis continue to seek shelter amid war, Bilzerian says he’s quite happy regarding the Iranian response.

I love that Israel is getting f****d up,” Bilzerian wrote on X, a platform where he has more than two million followers. “It’s like watching a long movie of a bully picking on defenseless people with the satisfaction of watching him get his ass beat at the end.”

After the United States surprised the world last night with its bombing of three nuclear weapon development sites within Iran, Bilzerian opined that President Donald Trump is a puppet of Israel and Netanyahu.

“Trump bombed Iran, looks like Elon was right, they must have him on tape with kids, he can’t say no to Netanyahu,” Bilzerian opined in reference to Trump being in the Epstein files.

Trump presumably faced pressure from one of his largest financial backers, Dr. Miriam Adelson, the largest individual shareholder of Las Vegas Sands. The Sands casino empire runs integrated resorts in China’s Macau and in Singapore.

Adelson’s primary mission of her extravagant wealth — estimated around $31 billion by Forbes — is to strengthen the Israeli state and further closen the U.S.-Israel relationship.

There will either be peace or there will be tragedy for Iran,” Trump said from the White House after attacking its nuclear sites — Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan. “For 40 years, Iran has been saying ‘death to America. Death to Israel.’ They have been killing our people, blowing off their arms, blowing off their legs with roadside bombs. That was their specialty. I decided a long time ago that I would not let this happen. It will not continue.”

Trump’s engaging of the U.S. military comes after repeatedly pledging during his 2024 campaign not to participate in “stupid wars” and to keep the Middle East free of additional conflicts. 

Presidential Authority 

Many Democrats and even some within Trump’s GOP believe the president overstepped his authority in the Iran attacks. Only Congress has the power to declare war under the Constitution, though the president, as commander-in-chief of the armed forces, can initiate military action to defend the nation.

On Kalshi, political bettors give Trump a 48% chance of being impeached again. Those odds are up almost 3% over the past week.
