Netanyahu spoke with Trump about ‘eliminating Tehran regime’

way2barak, October 20: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel is “committed” to bringing down the Iranian regime, which will in turn topple Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Speaking at the opening of the academic year at the new Tel Hai University in Kiryat Shmona, next to the Lebanon border, Netanyahu says while the IDF has made major progress in pushing back Hezbollah, “I am committed to finishing the job.”

“Finishing the job means bringing down the terrorist regime in Iran. It is the head of this poisonous octopus. You cut it off, and it will fall. We will also have peace with Lebanon,” Netanyahu says.

“We must complete the elimination of the Iranian regime — that is the primary objective,” the prime minister adds. “I have spoken about this with President Trump more than once, including the day before yesterday.”
