Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid gave a warning to Iran this week that the Jewish state would prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons using force if necessary.
Lapid made his comments during a visit to the Nevatim airbase in southern Israel, which houses the Israeli Air Force’s fleet of advanced F-35 fighter jets.
“It is still too early to know if we have indeed succeeded in stopping the nuclear agreement, but Israel is prepared for every threat and every scenario,” Lapid said in a brief statement in front of an F-35.
“If Iran continues to test us, it will discover Israel’s long arm and capabilities. We will continue to act on all fronts against terrorism and against those who seek to harm us,” he said.
“As [US] President [Joe] Biden and I agreed, Israel has full freedom to act as we see fit to prevent the possibility of Iran becoming a nuclear threat,” Lapid added.

The Iranian regime continues plans to acquire nuclear weapons while it actively funds terrorist groups that destabilise the Middle East. Meanwhile, the West seeks to sign a new Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA) that would inject hundreds-of-billions into the Iranian economy. This money will be used to fund terrorism and treaten Israel.
We need to continue praying that the West will not be weak in the face of Iran. That they will not sign a broken deal and instead stand with Israel against the threat of Iran.
