Netanyahu Warns Iran Against Another Attack on Israel (Video)

by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent

(Worthy News) – In his second English-language video addressed to the Iranian people in recent months, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated on Tuesday that a third Iranian attack on Israel would “simply cripple Iran’s economy.”

Netanyahu recounted his recent outreach efforts to Iranians, stating, “A few weeks ago, I spoke directly to the people of Iran. Millions of people around the world, including millions in Iran itself, saw that video. After they viewed it, many Iranians reached out to Israel. So today, I want to once again address the people of Iran,” highlighting his ongoing communication with the Iranian population.

Netanyahu criticized the Iranian leadership for squandering funds on attacks against Israel, which he suggested could be better invested in Iran’s future.

Netanyahu emphasized, “It would rob you of many more billions of dollars,” referring to the potential cost of an additional attack on Israel. He previously stated that the October ballistic missile attack had cost Tehran $2.3 billion.

Netanyahu remarked that the October attack “did marginal damage to Israel,” then questioned the cost to Iran, asking, “But what damage did [it] do to you? That sum could have added billions to your transportation budget. It could have added billions to your education budget.”

“I want you to imagine — just imagine — how your life could be different if Iran was free. You could speak your mind without fear. You could make a joke without wondering if you’d be carted off to Evin prison. Close your eyes. Picture the faces of your children — beautiful innocent souls. Think of the endless potential they would have. Their entire lives are ahead of them,” Netanyahu said.

‎‏”Imagine how your children’s lives would look if billions of dollars were invested in them instead of being wasted on wars that can’t be won. They would receive world-class education. You would receive beautiful roads. Advanced hospitals. Clean water. You know, Israel has the world’s most advanced desalination system and we’d be happy to help rebuild Iran’s collapsing water infrastructure. These and so many other things are the things that you could have,” Netanyahu added.

“But that’s what Khamenei’s regime denies you every single day. They obsess about destroying Israel, rather than about building Iran. What a shame,” Netanyahu continued. “Another attack on Israel would simply cripple Iran’s economy. It would rob you of many more billions of dollars.”

“I know that you don’t want this war. I don’t want this war either. The people of Israel don’t want this war,” Netanyahu stated.

Netanyahu stated, “Yet there’s one thing Khamenei’s regime fears more than Israel. You know what it is? It’s you — the people of Iran. That’s why they spend so much time and money trying to crush your hopes and curb your dreams.” He continued, “Well, I say to you this: don’t let your dreams die. I hear the whispers: Women, Life, Freedom,” referencing the slogan of the nationwide Iranian protests in 2022.

Looking toward a peaceful future between Israel and Iran, Netanyahu encouraged, “Don’t lose hope. And know that Israel and others in the free world stand with you.”

Netanyahu concluded, “The regime wants to destroy your future as they seek to destroy our state. Well, we won’t let that happen. I have no doubt that one day in a free Iran, Israelis and Iranians will build together a future of prosperity and peace. That is the future Israel deserves. That is the future Iran deserves. Together, let us turn this beautiful dream into a reality.”
