Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted an image on his X (formerly Twitter) account depicting a nuclear bomb over Tel Aviv, emphasizing the existential threat posed by Iran. He quoted author Yuval Bloomberg, who stated that Israel faces a "real and tangible existential danger" and that "if the Iranians achieve nuclear capability, nothing else will matter anymore." Netanyahu's post reiterated a claim that Israel had two years under the Trump administration to address the Iranian threat.
The prime minister suggested that issues such as Qatar, the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) community, "Aurich" (likely referring to the Aurich report on military conscription), conscription itself, and various warnings are "a huge smokescreen" to hide the paramount issue of Iran's nuclear program. He posed a rhetorical question: "If two atomic bombs fall on central Israel, who will care about all these pointless storms?"
