Iran war will be ‘quick and decisive,’ says Netanyahu, not an ‘endless war’

“Ridiculous” – Israel’s prime minister mocks claims that Israel dragged the US into the current war with Iran.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicted on Monday that the joint US-Israeli air campaign against Iran will be “quick and decisive,” pushing back both on claims that the conflict will turn into an “endless war” and that Israel dragged the United States into the war.

Netanyahu spoke with Fox News’ Sean Hannity overnight, claiming that Iran is now “at its weakest point” since the Islamic Revolution of 1979.

“I hear people are telling you that you’re going to have an endless war here — you’re not going to have an endless war,” Netanyahu said.

“I said it could be quick and decisive. It may take some time, but it’s not going to take years. It is not an endless war. In fact, it is an effort right now to achieve the peace that we all yearn and pray for. And I think together we will achieve it.”

“This terror regime in Iran is at its weakest point that it’s been since it hijacked Iran from the brave Iranian people 47 years ago,” Netanyahu added.

“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.”

The Israeli premier also said that the war, once completed, could open the door to a major expansion of the Abraham Accords, potentially enabling Israel and Saudi Arabia to normalize relations.

“I think peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia would be really possible and probably very close once this thing happens. This is a gateway for peace, for broader peace, and I believe that we can achieve it.”
