Netanyahu’s ‘Save The World’ Line Cut Through The Rubble — A Direct Nod To President Trump

Visiting the site of the synagogue in Beit Shemesh — where an Iranian strike murdered nine Israelis, including four young teenagers, three of whom came from the same family — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the effort President Trump made to attack Iran was no less than to “save the world.”

“If this regime, this terrorist regime of the kind we’ve never seen in the world, if they get nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them, ballistic missiles, intercontinental ballistic missiles, they will threaten all of humanity,” Netanyahu declared. “We set out to protect ourselves, but in so doing, we protect many others. I want to say special thanks to our great friend and a great leader of the world, Donald Trump, for joining us in this crucial effort to save the world.”

Netanyahu has good reason for insisting that the tyrannical Islamist regime would be a threat to the world. In response to the U.S.-Israeli attack targeting military installations in Iran, the Iranian regime has indiscriminately launched weapons at civilian areas all around the Middle East. Given the possibility of developing nuclear weapons, the regime would likely have no qualms about using them to further terrorize humanity.

Trump and Netanyahu have shared an unblinking view of Iran for decades. In 2015, during the announcement of Trump’s first campaign, he famously called the Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA) “one of the worst and most one-sided transactions” in history. He said Iran was a “paper tiger” that was nevertheless being handed “the path to a nuclear weapon” by the Obama administration.

In October 2017, as president, he stated, “History has shown that the longer we ignore a threat, the more dangerous that threat becomes. For this reason, upon taking office, I’ve ordered a complete strategic review of our policy toward the rogue regime in Iran. Today, I am announcing our strategy, along with several major steps we are taking to confront the Iranian regime’s hostile actions and to ensure that Iran never, and I mean never, acquires a nuclear weapon. Our policy is based on a clear-eyed assessment of the Iranian dictatorship, its sponsorship of terrorism, and its continuing aggression in the Middle East and all around the world.”

For three decades, Netanyahu has been the world’s most consistent and vocal advocate for treating the Iranian regime as an existential threat. As far back as 1996, during his first term as prime minister, he spoke to Congress, stating, “We admire America for its moral force. As Jews and as Israelis, we are proud that this moral force is derived from the Bible. … In the 20th century, every free person looks to America as the champion of freedom. Yesterday my wife and I spent a very moving hour at Arlington Cemetery, and we saw there the evidence of the price you paid for that freedom — in the lives of your best and brightest young men. And it’s a toll that is exacted from you — from all of us, but from you, these very days.”

“I have touched on the problem of the Middle East that is largely undemocratic, and part of it is strongly anti-democratic,” he continued. “Specifically, it is being radicalized and terrorized by a number of unreconstructed dictatorships whose governmental creed is based on tyranny and intimidation. The most dangerous of these regimes is Iran, that has wed a cruel despotism to a fanatic militancy. If this regime, or its despotic neighbor Iraq were to acquire nuclear weapons, this could presage catastrophic consequences, not only for my country, and not only for the Middle East, but for all mankind.”
