Lapid: Israeli Consensus Supports Acting to Prevent Iran from Going Nuclear
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Outgoing Prime Minister Yair Lapid told new Israeli Air Force pilots on Wednesday: "Two weeks ago we held a large-scale joint exercise with the U.S. Air Force. The exercise, which simulated an attack thousands of kilometers from Israel's borders, was the first in a series of planned exercises in the near future." "Our enemies should know that we will not stand idly by in the face of threats that we see as existential. I discussed this with incoming prime minister Netanyahu, and this is one of the few issues on which there is a consensus in the Israeli public. No Israeli government will agree to Iran becoming nuclear. If it is necessary to act, we will act."
