Liberman: We have until Jan. 20 to deliver devastating blow to Iran
Yisrael Beytenu leader MK Avigdor Liberman urges the government to stop dithering and act strongly against Iran, saying Israel needs to move before US President-elect Donald Trump takes office.
“What we are seeing now is again deliberations, hesitations on Iran,” Liberman says at a meeting of his faction in the Knesset. “As I said before and say again, this is the last chance. We have a window until January 20 to land a devastating blow on Iran.”
Liberman also criticizes the ceasefire in Lebanon, saying that it is insufficient and will only allow Hezbollah time to regroup before the next war in five or six years.
