if israel were to allow— guarantees for israel if israelis, who is going to make sure that it is implemented? right. can it happen under benjamin netanyahu? neta nyahu ? i netanyahu? i don't think so. if you think of the last 100 years, the closest we have come to some settlement of the israel— palestine issue was the oslo agreements. the two people who opposed the oslo agreements were hamas side and netanyahu on the other side, who was leader of the opposition. he has been very consistent in his approach of opposing any prospect of a palestinian state, but i don't think israel will ever be fully secure without an agreement, at least a political horizon, for a palestinian state, so that is probably going to need a change of government in israel to bring that about. how do these wars end, do you think? i agree with what was said here, and i agree with what was said here, and ithink— i agree with what was said here, and i think that _ i agree with what was said here, and i think that this war is different as a _ i think that this war is diffe

that. i think the united states is anxious to keep israel from overescalation, meaning they know that israel is going to retaliate, iran knows israel is going to retaliate, what the united states is trying to do is create the set of circumstances that allow israel ' the ability to retaliate with a significant strike, but not something that prompts immediate iranian retaliation, and withdraw back to its borders, maintaining the fiction of effective missile defense, so that politically netanyahu has some sort of um cover to hide behind, and that's that's appears to what what he's doing. i don't know how long this subterfuge, if indeed it is subtrige can last, there is commercially available satellite imagery. "um, there's eventually we're going to get to know what was hit in israel and uh, how badly it was hit, the iranians will publish a target list, and the truth will come out, but i think right now biden is desperately trying to contain a a situation that's gone grossly out of control, the us navy uh, did not stop this attack, it was supposed to, but it did not stop this attack, uh, it did intercept a handful of uh, of missiles, b

israel. damn israel. i feel proud, i am shiite and i am iranian. we must destroy israel, there is no use waiting. this must continue more decisively. israel must understand that it cannot engage in a fight with the iranians, with the shiites. israel does not intend to let the incident slide, they said that the iranian attack was a big mistake and promised to respond at a convenient time. iran made a big mistake tonight, and they will pay for it. the iranian regime does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and to take retaliatory measures against our enemies. it is extremely difficult to predict how the situation will develop further. israel is used to holding back. embassy of syria. belarus is committed to security and peace. nuclear energy issues. the head of state discussed them at a meeting with the director general of the international atomic energy agency the day before. minsk highly values ​​the work of the iaea, especially at the stations that are now effectively in the combat zone. we are talking about the kursk and zaporozhye regions. this is a question of global security
