Bennett Vows Iran Regime-Change Plan if Elected

Bennett Vows Iran Regime-Change Plan if Elected

Former prime minister Naftali Bennett told the Herzliya Conference that a government under his leadership would make overthrowing Iran's regime Israel's strategic goal before Tehran restores a nuclear weapon. He argued that bombs alone are not enough, outlining economic, cyber, information and minority-support tools to deepen the Islamic Republic's weaknesses. Bennett's own post repeats the line. He also warned Hamas is rearming and Hezbollah is growing stronger. Netanyahu's camp will challenge the politics, but the strategic baseline is right: Israel cannot let Iran rebuild nuclear or proxy power.
