Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated in an interview that the Iranian regime will fall, asserting that this is his directive, though he declined to provide specifics on how this would be achieved. Speaking on the radio program "P'tchi and Zamri Ba'am," Netanyahu linked the struggle against Iran to the upcoming elections, emphasizing the existential nature of the conflict. "It's either them or us, it's important that they fall and not us. We must win, and that's what the elections are about, our existence," he declared. He also recalled that "a year ago, millions of citizens almost evaporated."
Netanyahu also addressed political tensions with Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, vehemently denying Ben-Gvir's claims that Netanyahu intended to appoint Gadi Eisenkot as the next defense minister. "I think there is no greater absurdity than this. This is a spin he is pushing. It's simply a lie," Netanyahu responded, stating his intention to form a government based on the current coalition partners. He reiterated his principles for a future government: "no Palestinian state, Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people, an aggressive policy not containment, very strong, and of course a free economy."
Furthermore, the Prime Minister dismissed allegations that he conveyed different messages to European governments, calling such claims "a complete lie" and urging an end to internal political "spin." He directly criticized Ben-Gvir's conduct, suggesting that while he, Bezalel, and others "shoot outwards," someone is advising Ben-Gvir to "shoot inwards."
