Netanyahu Warns Iran Could See Regime Change Due to Israeli Attacks

The Israeli prime minister reiterated that Israel carried out the strikes because of Iranโ€™s nuclear program.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on June 15 that Iran could undergo a regime change as a result of Israelโ€™s recent strikes on the country and nuclear facility.

Israel launched โ€œOperation Rising Lionโ€ with a surprise attack on the morning of June 13, taking out top Iranian generals and scientists while damaging some of Iranโ€™s nuclear facilities. In response, Iran has said that it would continue to launch its own strikes on Israel.

Israeli officials have said the current goal of the campaign is not a change in the Iranian regime, which was established under a revolution in the late 1970s, but the dismantling of Iranโ€™s nuclear and ballistic missile programs.

But Netanyahu told Fox Newsโ€™s Bret Baier on June 15 that regime change โ€œcould certainly be the result because the Iran regime is very weak.โ€

โ€œWeโ€™re geared to do whatever is necessary to achieve our dual aim, to remove … two existential threatsโ€”the nuclear threat and the ballistic missile threat,โ€ Netanyahu told Baier, adding that Israel is trying to โ€œprotect the world from this incendiary regime.โ€

Israel and Iran launched fresh attacks on each other overnight into June 15, killing scores of people and raising fears of a wider conflict. U.S. President Donald Trump said the conflict could be ended easily and signaled that he still wants a peace deal, while warning Tehran not to strike any U.S. targets or assets.

Also in the interview, Netanyahu was asked about reports, citing anonymous officials, that Trump vetoed an Israeli plan for a strike targeting Iranโ€™s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

โ€œThereโ€™s so many false reports of conversations that never happened, and Iโ€™m not going to get into that,โ€ the Israeli prime minister said. โ€œBut I can tell you, I think that we do what we need to do.โ€

Netanyahu also reiterated claims that Iran was working on a clandestine program to enrich uranium to be used for nuclear weapons, which necessitated the need for strikes.
