Netanyahu Insists U.S. and Israel's Strikes on Iran Won't Lead to "Endless War"
(Fox News) Joseph A. Wulfsohn - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Fox News on Monday: "You're not going to have an endless war. This terror regime in Iran is at the weakest point that it's been since it hijacked Iran from the brave Iranian people 47 years ago. So this is going to be a quick and decisive action. And we're going to create the conditions first for the Iranian people to get control of their destiny, to form their own democratically elected government, which will make a different Iran altogether." "If we go through what we plan to do, I think it will create conditions for peace. This is not an endless war....This is a gateway to peace. It's the exact opposite of what people are saying." Netanyahu called the assertion that President Trump was dragged into a war with Iran by Israel "ridiculous." "Donald Trump is the strongest leader in the world. He does what he thinks is right for America. He does also what he thinks is right for future generations....Iran is committed to your destruction. And whether people understand it or not, the leader has to understand it. Donald Trump understands it. You don't have to drag him into anything." The Iranians "are totally fanatic about this - about the goal of destroying America. So, they started building new sites and new places, underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program and their atomic bomb program immune within months. If no action was taken now, no action could be taken in the future. And then they could target America. They could blackmail America. They could threaten us and threaten everyone in between. So, action had to be taken."
