'Rebuilding Nuke Sites': Bibi Defends War On Iran, Says 'Strikes Were Necessary'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the US-Israel war against Iran may take “some time” but would not drag on for years, rejecting comparisons to prolonged conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Speaking to Fox News, Netanyahu called the assault decisive rather than endless, even as President Donald Trump signalled the campaign could last weeks or longer. The conflict began with joint US-Israeli strikes on Tehran that killed Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, triggering retaliatory missile and drone attacks across the region. Netanyahu framed the war as a potential pathway to lasting Middle East peace, even suggesting it could create conditions for the Iranian people to eventually topple their government - a claim that comes amid rising scepticism among Americans over deeper US involvement.
