Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with Fox News’ Sean Hannity Monday night to discuss Operation Epic Fury and the importance of striking Iran now — and not before it’s too late.
“The reason that we had to act now is because they were,” Netanyahu said. “After we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missile program, you’d think they learned a lesson, but they didn’t because they’re unreformable. They’re totally fanatical about this — about the goal of destroying America.”
“So they started building new sites, new places, underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program and their atomic bomb program immune within months,” Bibi continued. “If no action was taken now, no action could be taken in the future.”
“And then they could target America. They could blackmail America. They could threaten us and threaten everyone in between. So action had to be taken. And you needed a resolute president like Donald J. Trump to take that action.”

Netanyahu also praised President Trump, saying, “There’s never been a president like him.”
“I want to tell you something. I’m not a youngster, so I’ve been around. There’s never been a president like Donald J. Trump. His resoluteness, his decisiveness, his clarity of thinking — the way he gets right to the crux of things. He cuts through all the fluff, cuts to the chase, gets down to the main point, and gets down to the main action that needs to be taken,” Bibi told Hannity. “And I think, as well, for the countries of the free world—let me tell you, I think for the world—we’re very lucky to have him as the leader of the free world and, in fact, the leader of the world. He’s brought America back to being the leader of the world.”
