According to a report from The Jerusalem Post, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a stark warning about Iran’s ongoing threats, asserting that the regime maintains a chemical weapons capability even as its nuclear ambitions have been significantly disrupted by recent military actions.
In an interview on Newsmax’s The Record With Greta Van Susteren on Tuesday, Netanyahu addressed the persistent dangers posed by Tehran. He emphasized that the regime’s chemical weapons represent a continuing risk amid the broader conflict involving the United States and Israel.
“They definitely have chemical weapons,” Netanyahu stated. “That I can tell you. And that is another threat that they pose.”
The Prime Minister detailed the impact of Operation Roaring Lion, which he said dismantled key elements of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Israeli and U.S. strikes targeted centrifuges, manufacturing facilities, and personnel critical to the program, effectively setting back Tehran’s efforts to develop nuclear weapons.
“We destroyed a lot of their infrastructure, a lot of their centrifuges, a lot of the associated factories and facilities that they use for manufacturing nuclear weapons, and we knocked out 20 of their top nuclear scientists,” Netanyahu explained. “So we pushed it back considerably.”
Despite these gains, Netanyahu cautioned against any sense of final victory, likening the situation to a medical procedure that requires vigilance. “It doesn’t mean that they’re left to their own devices; they’ll go back to it. It’s like, you know, when you excise a piece of cancer, a lump of cancer from your body, you know, it may come back. But you know one thing: if you wouldn’t do it, you could die.”
Netanyahu also explained the rationale behind U.S. involvement in the conflict, noting direct threats to American security from Iranian ballistic missiles potentially armed with nuclear warheads. He highlighted the regime’s hostile rhetoric toward the United States and President Donald Trump as a key factor.
“America was threatened with a very great danger,” he said, underscoring the imperative for decisive action to prevent Iran from achieving long-range strike capabilities.
The Israeli leader further portrayed the Iranian government as deeply unpopular among its own citizens, describing it as a repressive force that has violently suppressed dissent. He estimated that around 80% of Iran’s approximately 90 million people oppose the regime, which he characterized as holding the population “at gunpoint” and responsible for the deaths and injuries of tens of thousands.
Netanyahu painted a picture of a regime under severe strain following the coordinated strikes. Much of the infrastructure controlled by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has been crippled, leaving the Iranian people in dire economic conditions while leaders maintain lavish lifestyles. He expressed confidence that internal pressures could eventually lead to the regime’s collapse, potentially with external support.
