What did Israel Prime Minister say about conflict with Iran?

During a cabinet meeting, the Israeli Prime Minister made it clear that his campaign against the Iran is still incomplete and he will not rest until he has brought it to its conclusion.

While talking about attack on Iran, Netanyahu issued a strong statement on Tuesday, saying that the joint US and Israeli attack have shaken the foundations of the Iranian regime. 

According to Netanyahu, Iran's nuclear program and ballistic missile capabilities are now under severe pressure, and Israel has dealt a severe blow to these two major threats. 

What about Israel alliance with Arab countries?

The Israeli Prime Minister also shared about his alliance with Arab countries, saying, "We are forming alliances with Arab countries that are talking about fighting alongside us. In the past, I had secret conversations with Arab leaders. I told them, the moment Iran is able to, they will conquer you and topple your kingdoms. Back then, they didn’t really internalize this, today, they understand.”

What are Trump's plan?

US President Donald Trump's stance in the White House appears to be somewhat different from Netanyahu's, focusing on the US. 

When asked about rising oil prices, he stated clearly that he would withdraw his troops from Iran very soon, which would cause fuel prices to fall sharply. 

Trump also hinted that only two weeks or a few days are left to complete this operation. He also made it clear that this decision is not dependent on any new deal with Iran.

Trump has issued another major international warning, stating that other countries must now take responsibility for their own energy security. 

"Well, I think it'll automatically open, but my attitude is, I've obliterated the country. They have no strength left, and let the countries that are using the strait, let them go and open it... because I would imagine whoever's controlling the oil will be very happy to open the strait," he said.
