Netanyahu says Iran ‘radical as ever’
He says that Rouhani’s government hangs gays and journalists, mentions its human rights violations.
“Iran’s regime is as radical as ever,” Netanyahu says.
He says this “shouldn’t be surprising” because ideology is rooted in militant Islam.
“The battle of Iran against ISIS doesn’t turn Iran into a friend,” he says. They are “battling for the crown.”
He calls it a “deadly game of thrones.”
“So when it comes to Iran and ISIS, the enemy of your enemy is your enemy.”
