Netanyahu breaks silence for first time since strikes against Iran
Fox News ^ | March 2, 2026 | Fox News Channel

Posted on 03/02/2026 9:08:47 PM PST by deks

Netanyahu said, "So this is a regime committed to destroying the United States of America. It's the only country on the planet that says so openly and works tirelessly to achieve that goal."

"The reason we had to act now is because they were, after we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missiles program, you'd think they would learn a lesson but they didn't. Because they're unreformable, totally fanatic about this, about the goal of destroying America."

"So they started building new sites, new places, underground bunkers, that would make their ballistic missile program and their atomic bomb program immune within months."

"If no action was taken now, no action could be taken in the future, and then they could target America, they could blackmail America, they could threaten us and everyone in between."

"So action had to be taken and you needed a resolute president like Donald J. Trump to take that action, and we are his very strong and able partners, and our alliance today is so strong we had to take the action now and we did. Otherwise the Iranian mass murderer regime would have immunity from future action."

There was no compromise possible with the Shiite fanatics, especially Ali Khamenei. They had to be believed, as they preached "Death to America" for almost 50 years since they took over Iran.

Imagine this regime after a successful nuclear bomb test in their uninhabited desert area or underground. They would actually use the nukes on Israel and the U.S. or others, likely smuggled in a shipping container or launched from a ship offshore.

I am grateful, and proud of Donald John Trump for having the will to order the end of this threat, once and for all.

What I find odd is that Iran "does not" have a deliverable nuclear bomb today. The physics behind a uranium 235 atomic bomb are relative simple and can be found in your local library as it is common knowledge. Iran knows how to enrich uranium to a usable percentage for an atomic bomb. To think they have not done this is foolish.

Iran has close relationship with North Korea that has developed thermonuclear weapons. Actually they have cooperated in this. It would be idiocy to think they did not have access to this with one possible exception. North Koreas thermonuclear bombs have a return address due to isotopes from their former tests.

“Breaks silence”, lol. I guess anything that is not on Fox News is “silence”.

Bibi is right. But somewhere in a closet, Lindsey Graham is jerking off.

Why North Korea? Is there a reason you don’t mention Pakistan?

They’ve had an ‘Islamic bomb’ for over 25 years and are directly adjacent. Pakistan supplied Iran centrifuge technology decades ago.

I’m glad we whacked off the ayatollah and most of the governing body there.

But what is our ultimate goal of this action. What do we want to achieve before we stop?

Do we want the shah’s son to take over?

Or do we just have a set of targets and people who we want to destroy and then stop, and tell whoever is going to run things that they have x amount of time to implement certain things we want, or they get whacked again?

Or is it something else?

The physics are relatively simple, but you need to separate Uranium 235 from U238.

Looks more to me like Donald Trump clearing the field for Israel to create it’s “Greater Israel”. Kind of ironic he decides to give justification for his war *after* committing the US to a regional war. It’s traditional to get the public behind you, at least to some degree, before launching hostilities. You see Trump and Netanyahu all of the sudden because they are taking aback at so little support. I guess they though Christian America would automatically rally to the cause.

“Why North Korea? Is there a reason you don’t mention Pakistan?”

Because they are not insane as is the leadership of Iran. Neither want Israeli thermonuclear bombs dropped on them.

Israel has never tested an atomic bomb nor thermonuclear bomb which is odd. Their weapons work. Their weapons are our designs.

They are thought to have tested theirs with the assistance of South Africa prior to the communist ANC takeover there.

” It's the only country on the planet that says so openly and works tirelessly to achieve that goal."

North Korea has repeatedly threatened to attack US bases. China, through its fentanyl cartel, has killed over 70,000 Americans a year.

Trump went in this knowing these things were unpopular. Hell, he won by running against their unpopularity THREE times. And obviously Bibi doesn’t really care if this cripples Trump politically or burns down the GOP in the process. He got what he wanted. If the GOP never wins a national election again, it’s not his problem.

"Trump went in this knowing these things were unpopular" I wouldn't bet a Trump Shekel on it.

A verse to consider since Israel is involved and all:

Daniel 7

20 I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell—the horn that looked more imposing than the others and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully. 21 As I watched, this horn was waging war against the holy people and defeating them, 22 until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the holy people of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom.

This particular person is referred to later also,

24 The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.[b]

26 “‘But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.

Just because America does something that helps Israel does not mean America is like a dog on their leash. Ending the threat of Iran is in the interest of both America and Israel.
