The agreement between Iran and the P5+1 power on Tehran’s nuclear programs is “an historic mistake” that will enable hundreds of millions of dollars to flow into Iranian coffers to incite and carry out terror worldwide, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said Tuesday morning.
He issued a statement at his meeting Tuesday with Netherlands Foreign Minister Bert Koenders.
Prime Minister Netanyahu stated:
When you are willing to make an agreement at any cost, this is the result… This agreement is an historic mistake for the world….
Iran will receive hundreds of billions of dollars with which it can fuel its terror machine and its expansion and aggression throughout the Middle East and across the globe.
One cannot prevent an agreement when the negotiators are willing to make more and more concessions to those who, even during the talks, keep chanting: ‘Death to America.’
He charged that the desire by Western powers to reach an agreement was “stronger than anything” and that while “we did not commit to preventing an agreement, we did commit to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and this commitment still stands.
Prime Minister Netanyahu called on Israeli leaders “to put petty politics aside and unite” behind the government’s continuing campaign to convince Congress to ditch the agreement.
He made his statement shortly after Tzipi Livni, second fiddle to Opposition leader Yitzchak Herzog, blamed Netanyahu for the deal because he fought so hardly against it.
