Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied Monday evening that he had defined removing the existential threat from Iran as an explicit war goal. The denial was reported by Israeli media and comes amid a series of public statements by the Prime Minister on the Iran front. As The Zioneer reported over the past week, Netanyahu has repeatedly stated that Iran will not obtain a nuclear weapon as long as he is prime minister, and this week framed the struggle as a 30-year personal mission. The denial suggests internal or coalition debate over how to characterize Israel's full set of objectives in the campaign against Iran.
