Netanyahu: Israel Is Helping To “Liberate The Persians”

“People ask me – are we targeting the downfall of the regime? That may be a result, but it’s up to the Iranian people to rise for their freedom. Freedom is never cheap. It’s never free. Freedom requires these subjugated people to rise up, and it’s up to them. But we may create conditions that will help them do it. I want to tell you that 2,500 years ago, Cyrus the Great, the king of Persia, liberated the Jews. And today, a Jewish state is creating the means to liberate the Persian people.” – Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking outside of a hospital damaged by an Iranian missile.
