Threatening attack to Iran is a Fantasy of a 'Crime Minister'
In response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's threat to attack Iran, Nasser Kanaani said: "This threat is a fantasy by a criminal prime minister trapped in the Gaza swamp."
Speaking at his weekly news conference, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs added that the threat of the Israeli regime against the Islamic Republic shows the aggressive and criminal nature of this regime and its level of threat to global security.
He emphasized that this regime is against international peace and security and always seeks to create insecurity in the region.
He also stated that while Iran views these threats and rhetoric as useless, it expects the world and the Security Council to react and take action against any war-mongering.
Referring to the war in Gaza and the presence of Israeli forces there, Kanaani said: "Of course, the Zionist regime, especially its criminal prime minister, should first get rid of the quagmire in which it is trapped before thinking about attacking other power centers in the region. However, if he finds an opportunity for this fantasy."
