It's a messed up word.

Kudos to Iran to have survived 50 years under the worst sanctions and building the power they did and supporting who they could.

Whatever the results they are, they did remarkable and inshallah they will recover to do better.

That's a war vs the strongest empire in history and its most advanced spear

"We're going to now work to permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the coming years. And that is what the president has set out to do. Simple principle."

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Netanyahu:

- We thank our great friend Trump for the honorable action of the US military in inflicting massive damage on the Fordo facility.

- We are very close to achieving the objectives of the war against Iran.

- We will not end our operation prematurely, nor will we continue it longer than necessary.

- We will assess the situation and work to ensure that the Fordo facility no longer poses a threat to us.

- What we are doing is changing the face of the Middle East.

- We are examining in detail the results of the strikes on the Iranian nuclear program.

- Today, there is no Hezbullah to help Hamas, nor is there Iran to help them all.

- I am not taking my eyes off the Gaza Strip. We are advancing step by step toward defeating Hamas.

- The work in Iran is contributing to achieving the objectives in Gaza.
