Iran Prepares to Take Out Israel - Right after Iran Deal Is Signed
(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - The mullahs in Tehran appear convinced that once the Biden administration capitulates to their demands for reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, they will be able to step up their efforts to eliminate Israel and are encouraging their Lebanese and Palestinian terrorist proxies to prepare for waging war on Israel. Moreover, they are issuing direct threats not only against Israel, but also against any Arab country that dares to cooperate with the Israelis. The mullahs are sending a message to America's allies in the Arab world that if they believe they can trust the Biden administration to protect them against Iran's expansionist plans, they are sorely mistaken. Meanwhile, the mullahs are busy trying to open a new battlefront against Israel in the West Bank. The commander of the IRGC, Maj.-Gen. Hossein Salami, revealed that Iran was working with Hamas and Islamic Jihad to extend their terrorist attacks from Gaza to the West Bank in order to wage a war of attrition against Israel. Salami said, "Just as Gaza was armed [by Iran], the West Bank can be armed in the same way....There is no safe place at any time for Israel and its citizens." He said he recently met in Tehran with Islamic Jihad Secretary-General Ziyad al-Nakhalah and discussed with him "the disintegration and erosion of the capabilities of the Zionists." Anyone who thinks that the mullahs will abandon their bloody schemes against Israel and Arab countries after the signing of a new nuclear deal is deceiving themselves. Appeasement will only further fortify the mullahs and their proxies, and place in further peril the lives of both Arabs and Jews.
