Israel: Change in Iran Could Bring Peaceful Ties
[Reuters] Peaceful relations between Israel and Iran would be possible if new leadership took power in Tehran, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the German newspaper Bild. "There is no conflict between the Iranian people and the people of Israel and under a different regime the friendly relations that prevailed in the past could be restored." "What we have seen in Iran is a powerful desire on the part of the Iranian people to be free." Netanyahu also said, "We want to live peacefully next to the Palestinians and we don't want to govern them. We want them to have all the powers to govern themselves - except those handful of powers that could threaten Israel....We don't want to have another Iran next to our borders."
