Netanyahu: Nothing can convince me nuclear deal is good

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking at the opening of a police academy, tells gathered dignitaries and cadets that Iran is the largest threat facing Israel, calling the nuclear deal “very bad” and something that legitimizes its terror activities.

“There’s no explanation that can convince me that the deal is a good deal for a simple reason,” he says. “It’s a bad deal. A very bad deal.”

He warns that the deal will lend Iran’s aggressive behavior an international stamp of approval, and lets Tehran continue the aggression.

Without mentioning Russia’s lifting of its block on selling Iran S-300 missiles by name, he notes that the easing of sanctions under the deal will allow Tehran to fund its activities and funnel “tens of millions of dollars” into terror.

“The message Iran is getting is that it can continue and even ramp up its aggression,” he says. “That’s what it’s doing.”
