Tel Aviv (Israel), Feb 28 (LaPresse) – "Israel and the United States have launched an operation to remove the existential threat posed by the terrorist regime in Iran. The murderous terrorist regime must not be equipped with nuclear weapons that would allow it to threaten all of humanity." This was stated by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a speech delivered after the attack on Iran. "Our joint action will create the conditions for the brave Iranian people to take their destiny into their own hands. The time has come for all components of the Iranian people – Persians, Kurds, Azeris, Baluchis, and Ahwazis – to free themselves from the yoke of tyranny and build a free and peace-loving Iran," Netanyahu added. A senior Israeli official stated that the decision to attack Iran was made during Netanyahu’s last visit to Washington, according to Channel 12. "The Iranians were given one last chance and they ruined that too, as we had predicted."
