Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu published a video Monday in which he addressed the people of Iran and expressed solidarity with them against their leaders.
Netanyahu published the video as the Israeli military continued attacking Iran’s proxy, Hezbollah, in Lebanon, in an unexpected military rout that could leave Iran without a deterrent against an Israeli attack on its nuclear program.
The Prime Minister’s Office published his speech, in full:

The people want a better life, they just don't know anything different from what they have and they are afraid to speak out - so the status quo survives.
Iran was an amazing place before the filthy Mullahs.
The Iranians who lived a nearly western lifestyle have been succeeded by two generations who have known only Ayatollah rulers. For them, freedom is a foreign concept.
The Ayatollas killed a lot of people when they took over. It bought them 40 years. Will a hostile takeover by democratic forces require any less? Think Pinochet. Hopefully the ‘social’ police are identifiable and dealt with.
Lebanon was once nice too.
Glad you said that. I am now 74 but when I was around 20 I dated an Iranian, although he called himself Persian.
Then Persia was a happy place, the woman were not required with the veils and all that. He wanted me to go home and meet his mother with a hint of me possibly moving there.
But he told me that I might have to wear head gear at the airpart but it was not for me.
But I will never forget that. A great country, great people, now they don’t know what they once were.
You lived in Iran?!? Cool.
To my mind, all these crack pot governments are the same. You can do what you want as long as you don’t threaten their power. As True in Canada as it is in Venezuela. As True in America as it is in Iran. Netanyahu runs the land of Israel, in his land a bunch of Palestinians are stuck and can’t vote him out. I suspect they don’t feel too free and half the country hates him, half the country loves him. Is Iran all that different? If you keep your head down and don’t threaten their power are you generally fine? I bet you are. Propaganda is what governments do. I am humble enough to accept that what I’m being told about far away lands may or may not be true.
America is days away from electing an avowed Marxist. America is no longer what it was when you were 20 either.🤷♂️
Get rid of the Muslim Agagites and Persia will be a much better place.
Full Text of Benjamin Netanyahu’s Speech to the Iranian People:
—————————————-
I speak a lot about the leaders of Iran.
Yet at this pivotal moment, I want to address you – the people of Iran. I want to do so directly, without filters, without middlemen.
Every day, you see a regime that subjugates you, makes fiery speeches about defending Lebanon, defending Gaza.
Yet every day, that regime plunges our region deeper into darkness and deeper into war.
Every day, their puppets are eliminated.
Ask Mohammed Deif.
Ask Nasrallah.
There is nowhere in the Middle East Israel cannot reach.
There is nowhere we will not go to protect our people and protect our country.
With every passing moment, the regime is bringing you — the noble Persian people — closer to the abyss.
The vast majority of Iranians know their regime doesn’t care a whit about them.
If it did care, if it cared about you, it would stop wasting billions of dollars on futile wars across the Middle East. It would start improving your lives.
Imagine if all the vast money the regime wasted on nuclear weapons and foreign wars were invested in your children’s education, in improving your health care, in building your nation’s infrastructure, water, sewage, all the other things that you need. Imagine that.
But you know one simple thing – Iran’s tyrants don’t care about your future.
But you do.
When Iran is finally free and that moment will come a lot sooner than people think – everything will be different.
Our two ancient peoples, the Jewish people and the Persian people, will finally be at peace.
Our two countries, Israel and Iran, will be at peace.
When that day comes, the terror network that the regime built in five continents will be bankrupt, dismantled.
Iran will thrive as never before.
Global investment.
Massive tourism.
Brilliant technological innovation based on the tremendous talents that exist inside Iran.
Doesn’t that sound better than endless poverty, repression and war?
From Qom to Esfahan, from Shiraz to Tabriz, there are tens of millions of good and decent people with thousands of years of history behind them and a brilliant future ahead of them.
Don’t let a small group of fanatic theocrats crush your hopes and your dreams.
You deserve better.
Your children deserve better.
The entire world deserves better.
I know you don’t support the rapists and murderers of Hamas and Hezbollah, but your leaders do. You deserve more.
The people of Iran should know – Israel stands with you.
May we together know a future of prosperity and peace.
I lived in Iran during the time of the Shah. It was very pro-western and women were free of religious and male domination.
Perfect time for a revolution in Lebanon, Iran and Gaza. The people are tired of the abuse by the Mullahs.
This guy is no dummy, that is certain.
The Palestinians have Hamas’s boot on their neck not Israel’s.
Hamas doesn’t belong amongst the Palestinians!
Why is everybody on the left so fkg stupid?
The Palestinian people want to live life without a bloodthirsty evil group of innocents murdering Iranian proxy ftards forcing their compliance on them.
And that soup of moral equivalency you just pooped yourself with is beyond my comprehension. I’m just going to say a quick prayer for you and move on.
Im on the left? Ok. Not much of a discerning spirit.
They have revolted at least twice but the West didn’t back them up.
I’ve spoken with Persians before, and every one of them despise islam and the invaders that brought it.
And they actually played music and had dance clubs... wore jeans, etc.
