“I think President Trump wants to exhaust the possibility of achieving an agreement, especially on the nuclear issue, through negotiations,” Netanyahu told NBC News in an interview about the death of US Senator Lindsey Graham. “But he is obviously not shy of using force when the Iranians break every commitment they make.”
Netanyahu said Graham had urged action against Iran’s nuclear program, describing him as a fearless supporter of Israel and a critic of Tehran.
“He came to me and said, Bibi, you have to do it. You have to knock out this nuclear weapons program before they knock us out,” Netanyahu said.
“Are we supposed to believe that some junior officers are going rogue and firing on ships, but yet face no consequences from a dictatorial hierarchy-based entity like the IRGC? I don’t buy it,” Waltz told ABC.
The unnamed US official told CNN on Friday that Iran had acknowledged in communications with Washington that earlier strikes on merchant ships were a mistake. US Central Command said, however, that Iran “blatantly attacked” another vessel in the Strait on Saturday.
Waltz accused Iran of violating international law by attacking neighboring countries, civilian shipping and infrastructure, but said technical talks between Tehran and Washington were continuing despite Iran’s leadership being “incredibly difficult to deal with.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told NBC's "Meet the Press" that the late US senator Lindsey Graham urged him to attack Iran.
"He came to me and said, Bibi, you have to do it ... You have to knock out this nuclear weapons program before they knock us out," Netanyahu said in an interview posted on Sunday.
He also said that US President Donald Trump "wants to exhaust the possibility of achieving an agreement, especially on the nuclear issue, through negotiations" with Iran. However, "he is obviously not shy of using force when the Iranians break every commitment they make, usually a few hours or a few minutes after they make it."
