Netanyahu insists U.S. and Israel’s strikes on Iran won’t lead to ‘endless war’

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu assured Americans on Monday that there will be no “endless war” in the Middle East as the United States and Israel continue to hit the Iranian regime.

“You’re not going to have an endless war,” Netanyahu told Fox News’ Sean Hannity in an exclusive interview. “This terrorist regime in Iran is at its weakest point since it took Iran from the brave Iranian people 47 years ago. So this will be rapid and decisive action. And we will first create the conditions for the Iranian people to take control of their own destiny, to establish their own democratically elected government, and that will create a completely different Iran.”

Netanyahu emphasized that the collapse of the Iranian regime would pave the way for “many peace agreements” with other Muslim countries in the region and that this would “change the world.”

“I think if we do what we plan to do, it will create the conditions for peace,” the Prime Minister said. he said. “This is not an endless war. This is actually something that will usher in an era of peace we’ve never even dreamed of.”

Netanyahu specifically stated that Saudi Arabia is a country that he believes “has a lot to gain” from the overthrow of the Iranian regime, and that as a result, he believes that peace between Saudi Arabia and Israel will be “very close.”

“So this is a door to peace, to a broader peace. And I believe we can achieve that,” Netanyahu continued. “The most important thing you need to understand is that when President Trump and I work together, we actually achieve four breakthroughs for peace. We brokered it through President Trump, who worked with me; We put forward the Abraham Accords, which were four peace agreements with four Arab countries. And now, by working together against Iran, we will be able to bring about many more peace agreements. So this is not an endless war. This place is a door to peace. It’s the opposite of what people say.”

Netanyahu laughed off Trump’s critics’ “ridiculous” claim that the president was being dragged into a war with Iran by Israel.

“Donald Trump is the most powerful leader in the world,” he said. “He’s doing what he thinks is right for America. He’s also doing what he thinks is right for future generations… Iran is determined to destroy you. Whether the people understand that or not, the leader has to understand that. Donald Trump understands that. You don’t need to drag him into anything. He’s doing what he thinks is right, and that’s right.”

He doubled down on the dramatic military action taken by his country and the United States in “Operation Epic Rage”.

“The reason we had to act now is because they were,” Netanyahu said. “You’d think they’d learned a lesson after we hit their nuclear facilities and their ballistic missile programs, but they didn’t because they can’t be fixed. They’re completely fanatical about it – about the goal of destroying America. So they started building new areas and new places, underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile programs and their atomic bomb programs immune within months.”

“If no step is taken now, no step can be taken in the future,” Netanyahu said. “And then they could target America. They could blackmail America. They could threaten us and everyone in between. So action had to be taken. And to take that action, you needed a determined president like Donald J. Trump.”
