Netanyahu's Message of Solidarity to Iranian People

In a recent video published on Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Iranian people, expressing solidarity with them against their government. This message came amid ongoing military actions by Israel against Hezbollah in Lebanon, which has raised concerns about Iran's ability to respond to potential Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities. Netanyahu emphasized that the Iranian regime prioritizes military spending over the welfare of its citizens, suggesting that the vast resources allocated to nuclear weapons could be better used for education, healthcare, and infrastructure. He conveyed a hopeful message that a future free Iran would lead to peace between Israel and Iran, benefiting both nations. Netanyahu's outreach follows a similar message directed at the Lebanese people, clarifying that Israel's conflict is specifically with Hezbollah, not the Lebanese populace. This diplomatic gesture aims to foster goodwill and highlight the differences between the Iranian leadership and its citizens, who he believes do not support extremist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.
