Netanyahu: ‘Greatest Challenge Civilized World Faces Today’ Comes from ‘Militant Islamic States’
On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu kicked off his diplomatic tour across Europe with a trip to Berlin to meet German Chancellor Angela Merkel. At their joint press conference, Netanyahu described Iran as an existential threat to Israel with “genocidal designs” to use nuclear weapons against the Jewish state. The prime minister also linked Iran’s intervention in the Syrian Civil War and its buildup of military forces there to the Islamic Republic’s broader plans for regional conquest in Lebanon and Yemen.
After remarking favorably upon Israel’s relationship with Germany and their countries’ peaceful economic and technological cooperation, Netanyahu turned to the topic of Iran, stressing that “we have great opportunities, but we also face great challenges. And I think the greatest challenge that the civilized world faces today is the danger that comes out from militant Islamic states that are bent on aggression and acquiring nuclear arsenals.” Of those “militant Islamic states,” Netanyahu singled out Iran as “the greatest danger” to peace and stability. Drawing upon a recent purported remark from Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Netanyahu said that Israel continues to face the prospect of total destruction from Iran [emphasis mine]:
“Just yesterday, Iran’s leader Khamenei -- yesterday, he said again that Israel is a cancer that has to be eradicated, will be eradicated from the Earth. This is amazing that in the beginning of the 21stcentury, somebody talks about destroying Israel. It means destroying another six million plus Jews. It’s quite extraordinary that this goes on, but this is what we face. Iran calls for our destruction, but it’s also seeking nuclear weapons to carry out its genocidal designs. We know that for a fact.”
