Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used an interview on Channel 14 on Sunday evening to restate his ironclad position on Iran's nuclear ambitions. 'They will not develop nuclear weapons as long as I am prime minister,' he said, while also calling for the regime of the ayatollahs to be 'completely defeated.' Netanyahu argued that toppling the Iranian regime would create the conditions for eliminating Hamas and Hezbollah. He also acknowledged emerging threats from Turkey, asserting that President Recep Tayyip Erdogan 'doesn't like us and me very much.' The remarks come amid ongoing regional tensions and continued Israeli military operations against Iranian proxies. The Zioneer has previously covered Netanyahu's long-standing security doctrine on Iran, including his commitment to preventing a nuclear-armed Iran and statements suggesting readiness for further military action if necessary.
