Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated on Wednesday that Iran is once again attempting to develop nuclear weapons, specifically "death bombs." Addressing graduates of an officer's course at Bahad 1, Netanyahu identified Mojtaba, the son of Khamenei, as the current leader pushing this agenda, following in his father's footsteps. "Mojtaba has decided to follow in his father's path, and he has pulled the pin, and Iran is trying again to develop the death bombs," Netanyahu declared.
In response to this perceived threat, Netanyahu announced he has instructed Israel's security apparatus to work towards overthrowing the Iranian regime. "There is only one way to remove this threat, once and for all: to overthrow the regime in Iran, and this is my directive to the IDF, the Mossad, and the security branches," he said. He emphasized the existential threat posed by Iran, stating, "These extremists, these fanatics, they have one primary goal: first and foremost, death to Israel. Then also death to the United States, but first and foremost, death to Israel. And therefore, as long as they are here, as long as they aspire to equip themselves with terrible weapons of terror, the State of Israel is under an existential threat."
Netanyahu also referenced his conversations with U.S. President Trump, noting that Trump shares the view that regime change in Iran is the only solution. "My good friend President Trump also believes that this is the only way," Netanyahu said, quoting Trump as recently stating, "We are ready to finish the job, but we will do it only with you, the State of Israel." Netanyahu affirmed, "And this is exactly what we will do."
He further stated that Israel will act against "the head of the octopus" and sever its arms, vowing to eliminate Hamas and Hezbollah. This comes after Netanyahu remarked in a recent interview that while overthrowing the Iranian regime is necessary, he did not believe it would happen before the upcoming elections, calling it "not realistic."
