That is nothing compared to Iran. Iran, if it does not fear a military option, will become a 20 or 30 or 40 times the threat that North Korea poses because it is a theological, ideological regime. Don’t let Iran have nuclear weapons!
My comment:
Of course, Andrew Ross Sorkin did not ask Bibi to elaborate on what is the theological and ideological threat that makes Iran so dangerous. Nobody wants to hear about the Mahdi, Twelver Shi’a eschatology or what Bernard Lewis used to say about the Iranian mullahs.
I must admit that I am happy Israel again has a PM who is fully aware of the magnitude of the Iranian threat. This time it is compounded by the nuclear threat coming from Putin himself and the rocket engines for long range Iranian missiles Russia could provide Iran in exchange for the drones and short range missiles Iran would provide to Russia.
