Former Israeli minister for military affairs Avigdor Lieberman warned early Tuesday that a future confrontation with Iran is imminent and will be “more difficult and more complex,” as the U.S. greenlights a $510 million weapons package to the Israeli regime.

Why it matters:

Lieberman’s comments reflect deepening Israeli concern over potential Iranian self defense operation and long-term escalation, particularly as Tehran remains a central player in the Resistance Axis.

  • The new U.S. arms deal signals continued American backing amid ongoing regional tensions.

 

The big picture:

As Lieberman claims, the Israeli regime has “at most three years” before the next round of direct confrontation with Iran.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of State approved a substantial arms deal for the Israeli regime, including advanced bomb-guidance kits.

 

 

What he’s saying:

Liberman: "Iran’s nuclear program has been severely damaged but not destroyed — and that it can still be rebuilt."

“The Iranian nuclear program has taken a major hit, but it has not been eliminated. They can restore it.”

 

Go deeper:

The U.S. arms sale—particularly bunker busters suited for hardened underground facilities—raises questions about whether the Israeli regime is preparing for fresh aggression against Iran.
