Netanyahu Tells May: Those Who Want to Keep the Iran Deal Should Cooperate in Correcting It
(Prime Minister's Office) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told British Prime Minister Theresa May in London on Thursday: "A hundred years after Balfour, the Palestinians should finally accept the Jewish national home and finally accept the Jewish state. And when they do, the road to peace will be infinitely closer." "There are great things that are happening in the Middle East, because many Arab countries now see Israel not as an enemy, but as their indispensable ally in the battle against militant Islam." "The threat we all see is a resurgent Iran that is bent not only on dominating the region, but bent on developing nuclear weapons. The goal that I have in mind is not keeping or eliminating the deal; it's improving the deal and correcting its main flaws. And I think those who want to keep the deal should cooperate in correcting the deal."
