Netanyahu says joint attack with US was to remove existential threat posed by Iran
Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that Israel and the United States have conducted an operation aimed at eliminating the serious threat posed by Iran's regime, which he labeled as terrorist. He addressed the citizens of Israel, saying, “Not long ago, Israel and the United States started a mission to get rid of the existential danger from the terrorist regime in Iran. I want to express my gratitude to President Donald Trump for his significant leadership. “For 47 years, the ayatollah regime has been calling for ‘Death to Israel’ and ‘Death to America.’ They have caused the deaths of many Americans and have harmed their own population. This violent regime must not be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons that could threaten all of humanity. “Our combined efforts will help the brave people of Iran to take control of their future. The time is ripe for all groups of the Iranian people—including Persians, Kurds, Azeris, Baluchis, and Ahwazis—to break free from oppression and create a free and peaceful Iran. “I urge you, the citizens of Israel, to heed the advice of the Home Front Command. In the upcoming days, as part of Operation ‘The Roar of the Lion,’ we will need to be strong and resilient. Together, we will stand firm, we will fight, and we will ensure the lasting existence of Israel.”
