Lapid to ‘Post’: Israel will need to react to dangerous Russia, Iran ties
Jerusalem Post ^ | 10/24/22 | Yaakov Katz & Lahav Harkov

Israel is growingly concerned by the “dangerous closeness” between Russia and Iran over the supply of drones manufactured in the Islamic Republic to attack Ukraine and is, as a result, holding daily assessments to review its position on the conflict, Prime Minister Yair Lapid told The Jerusalem Post.

“Part of the work we’re doing has to do with the very dangerous closeness that is being created between Russia and Iran,” he told the Post in an interview on Sunday. “It’s not something we are going to ignore or do nothing about… so what we need to do is reassess on a daily basis and react.”

Lapid said Israel was holding close consultations with the Americans about the developing situation. Last Thursday, he spoke by phone with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kubela, and the issue came up. Iran has supplied Russia with scores of drones – including suicide ones – that have been used to attack Ukrainian civilian centers.

Israel will sit down and do nothing or they are asking for a catastrophe.

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of the Ezekiel 38,39 war. 👀

Exactly.

The Russians, Iranians, Turks and others sure like letting their mouths write checks that their fannies cannot cash.

There is Someone Who will cash those checks and they will not like the payout.

Ezekiel 38 and 39

Israel has bigger problems to worry about than Russia and Iran, such as six hundred percent of them having taken multiple hits of the KarenVax. As Clint Eastwood put it, God hates idiots also....
