Israel is “fighting for America too” and Iran’s declarations of its ambitions to destroy the U.S. should be taken seriously, according to Israeli lawmaker Ohad Tal, who vowed that Israel will act to protect its citizens and combat the Islamic Republic of Iran regardless of U.S. support, while lamenting that Israel has become “too dependent” on America.
“If somebody would tell America after 9/11, ‘do not fight back,’ would that make sense to anyone? Of course not,” he said. “So we, at the end of the day, will do what is good for Israel.” According to Tal, who serves on the Israeli parliament’s Security and Foreign Affairs Committee, “one of the biggest mistakes Israel made in the past years was becoming too dependent on America.”
“Perhaps they didn’t mean for that to happen, but the attack was a direct result of what they did,” he explained. “So, again, we have to fight back against Iran and we have to complete the mission in Gaza — to eradicate Hamas.” “It may take them a year or so — but it will happen again,” he added, “and we cannot afford for that to happen.”
However, Tal explained, Iran is not just trying to “destabilize the Middle East,” but has ambitions to “become a global superpower.”
