Yet inexplicably, almost nobody is touching it. For the past 45 years, the regime has been the source of endless war, terror and suffering throughout the world. I\u2019ve come to realize that enough is enough. The evil \u200cempire\u2064 of Iran must be brought down,&#8221; Bennett said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Bennett, who served as prime minister \u2064of Israel from 2021 to \u20632022, expressed his views in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/the-us-and-israel-need-to-take-iran-on-directly-proxies-hamas-threat-7f67a238\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">op-ed<\/a> published in The\u2063 Wall\u200b Street Journal. He emphasized the importance of targeting Iran directly, rather than just its terrorist proxies\u200b such as Hamas and Hezbollah.<\/p>\n<p>The Iranian regime has been responsible for supporting\u2064 various acts of terrorism in the region.\u200d For example, they supported the October 7 terror attack on \u200bIsrael, carried \u200bout by Hamas\u2063 and the Islamic\u2062 Jihad in Gaza,\u2062 which resulted in the deaths of\u2063 approximately 1,200 Israelis and the hostage-taking of hundreds more. Additionally, Iran-backed Hezbollah has launched hundreds of rockets at Israel\u2062 from the north, leading to the evacuation of tens of thousands of Israeli citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s influence extends beyond\u2064 Israel, as they have also supported the\u200d Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen, who \u2064have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/harris-trip-to-vietnam-delayed-by-anomalous-health-incident-in-hanoi\/\" title=\"Harris Trip To Vietnam Delayed By \u2018Anomalous Health Incident\u2019 In Hanoi\">disrupted shipping lanes<\/a>\u200c in the Red Sea\u200b by\u2064 launching \u2063rockets and drones against cargo ships. Furthermore, Iran-backed militias in Iraq and Syria have targeted U.S.\u200c bases with numerous strikes.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Iran constantly attacks Israel via its proxies in such places as Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Gaza and Yemen. Iran\u2019s terrorist proxies have waged war on every moderate element in the Middle East. They\u2019ve attacked the\u200b Saudi oil company Aramco, the United Arab Emirates, the Kurds \u200cand Israel on many occasions. The most amazing part: Iran has largely gotten away with it,&#8221; Bennett wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>To address this issue, \u200bBennett suggests that curbing Iran&#8217;s terror network does not necessarily require war with the Iranian regime. Instead, he proposes using other means to pressure and weaken Iran&#8217;s ruling class, such as empowering domestic opposition, ensuring internet continuity during riots against the regime, strengthening its enemies, \u200cand increasing sanctions\u2064 and economic pressures.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Iran\u2019s tyrants are softer\u2063 than one might expect. They gleefully send others \u200dto die for them. But when they\u2019re hit at home, suddenly they become timid,&#8221;\u200b he\u2064 continued. &#8220;The U.S. and Israel must set the clear goal of bringing \u2062down Iran\u2019s evil regime. Not only is this possible. It is vital for the safety and security of the Middle\u200c East \u2014 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/possible-mass-grave-with-up-to-9000-bodies-discovered-outside-mariupol-ukraine\/\" title=\"Possible Mass Grave, With Up To 9,000 Bodies, Discovered Outside Mariupol, Ukraine\">entire civilized world<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1700760801843000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG\">CLICK HERE TO GET \u200bTHE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What are the main reasons highlighted by Bennett \u200cfor \u200dfocusing on \u200dIran in the fight\u200b against terrorism, including their \u2063nuclear ambitions and \u200dsupport for terrorist\u2064 organizations<\/h2>\n<p><span>  As\u200c been involved in\u2063 numerous terrorist activities, including\u200b the bombing of the U.S.\u2064 Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983, which killed 241 American servicemen, and the 1992 and 1994\u2062 bombings of the Israeli Embassy and a Jewish community center in Argentina,\u200d respectively. These are just a few examples of Iran&#8217;s long history \u200dof supporting and orchestrating terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>Bennett argues that \u2062the United States and Israel cannot continue\u200b to ignore Iran&#8217;s role in destabilizing the \u2064region and\u2064 promoting terrorism. He believes \u200bthat\u200c targeting \u200bIran\u2063 directly is crucial\u2063 in\u2063 order to effectively combat terrorism in \u2062the Middle \u200cEast and ensure the safety and security \u2064of \u200bboth nations.<\/p>\n<p>In his op-ed, Bennett outlines\u200d several \u2062reasons why Iran must be \u2062the primary focus in the fight \u200dagainst terrorism.\u200b Firstly, he\u200d points \u200dout\u2062 that Iran has taken advantage of the power\u2062 vacuum created by \u2062the U.S. \u2063withdrawal from Afghanistan to \u2062expand its influence and support terrorist groups. He argues\u2064 that if action is not taken now, Iran will \u200bcontinue\u2064 to grow stronger and pose an \u200deven greater \u200dthreat to global\u2064 security in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, \u200bBennett emphasizes the importance of stopping Iran&#8217;s nuclear ambitions. \u2062He warns that a nuclear-armed Iran would not only\u200c be a direct threat to Israel&#8217;s existence, but also to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/2021-man-of-the-year-joe-manchin\/\" title=\"2021 Man of the Year: Joe Manchin\">entire free world<\/a>. \u200cHe stresses\u2064 that \u200dpreventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons should be a top \u200cpriority\u200b for both the\u200c United States and \u200bIsrael.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Bennett highlights Iran&#8217;s support \u200bfor various terrorist organizations, including Hamas and Hezbollah, and their use of these proxies to carry out attacks against innocent civilians. He asserts that targeting these terrorist groups \u2062alone is not \u200cenough,\u200b as \u2062Iran will\u200b continue to provide them with funding, training, and weapons \u2062unless\u2064 the root cause of the problem \u200b- the Iranian regime -\u200b is\u2063 confronted.<\/p>\n<p>Bennett&#8217;s call for action against Iran is grounded in his deep concern for \u200cthe safety and security of \u200dboth Israel and the \u2063United States. He\u200c believes that a \u2064united front against Iran, with both\u2063 nations working together to curb\u200c its\u2063 terrorism and nuclear ambitions, is essential in order to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/zelensky-praises-strike-on-russian-air-defense-as-significant-achievement\/\" title=\"Zelensky hails strike on Russian air defense as 'major success'\">achieve lasting peace<\/a> and stability in the region.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Naftali \u200cBennett, the former \u200bIsraeli Prime Minister, \u200cargues that in\u2062 order to effectively combat terrorism in\u2062 the Middle East, both the \u200bUnited States and \u2064Israel\u200c must target Iran directly. He \u200cpoints to Iran&#8217;s long history of supporting \u200dterrorism and its nuclear ambitions as reasons why action against Iran is imperative.\u200b Bennett&#8217;s call for action serves as a reminder that in the face of global \u200bterrorism, unity \u200dand\u200d determination are crucial in order to ensure\u200b the safety and\u2062 security of\u2062 both nations and the entire world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US and Israel must confront Iran to combat Middle East terrorism, says Naftali Bennett, former Israeli PM.
