The Iranian regime is “in deep trouble,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells Mark Levin in an hour-long interview on Fox News.
He filmed the interview while he was in Washington last week, one of three interviews granted to US media. He didn’t do any interviews with the traveling Israeli press.
Netanyahu says he would support an “exceptional deal” with Iran: “no enrichment, as President Trump and I say, no ballistic missiles, which could reach your shores, no ballistic missiles beyond what it allowed under international treaties, that is, 300 miles. And no terror axis.”
“Give me these three — It’s a different regime if it agrees to it,” he says.
“If it doesn’t, just keep them at bay and let things roll where they may inside Iran.”
Netanyahu says that had Israel and the US not attacked, “Iran could have had a nuclear weapon within a year.”
He also says the US under US President Donald Trump is a “different America.”
“It’s the America that the entire free world has actually longed to see,” says Netanyahu, adding that “if anyone deserves the Nobel Peace Prize, it’s President Trump.”
Netanyahu told Trump last week that he had recommended him for the prestigious award, and gave him a copy of the letter he sent to the Nobel committee.
