Former Israeli occupation Prime Minister Naftali Bennet, perhaps mistakenly or unintentionally, admitted that the Israeli regime attacked Iran in 2022.
The former Israeli Prime Minister wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal in which he censured Iran for "using proxies" in the Middle East to "do its dirty work", bunching together the Lebanese Hezbollah with the Yemeni Ansar Allah and other Resistance factions in Syria and Iraq and labeling them all as "Iranian proxies."
While his government is bombing civilians in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria, the former PM accused Iran of being "the source of endless war, terror and suffering throughout the world."
Bennett went on to call for bringing down Iran, which he described as the "evil empire", and detailing means of doing so: From enabling rioters with support from the United States to empowering the western-backed Iranian opposition and "strengthen[ing] its enemies". He also called for more stifling sanctions and economic pressure in a bid to undermine the Islamic Revolution.
When talking about the Resistance effort in West Asia and the Iranian effort to bolster the Axis of Resistance in the early 80s as it sought to undermine US imperialism and hegemony, Bennett commended Iran, saying its strategy of doing so was "brilliant".
In his op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, Bennett admitted that the Israeli occupation attacked sovereign Iranian soil in 2022. According to the then-premier, the Israeli occupation launched in February 2022 an attack on Iran in which it allegedly attacked a drone facility in Kermanshah, which was only referred to at the time as a military production plant.
Moreover, Bennett hinted that the Israeli occupation killed senior Quds Force commander Hassan Sayyad Khodaei in Tehran, marking yet another Israeli violation of Iran's sovereignty and underlining its disregard for international law.
No Israeli official, former or incumbent, came forward with such admissions before, which marks a precedent for Bennett and shows that the Israeli occupation, while suspected of carrying out the attacks, was indeed behind them.
The Israeli prime minister called for "Tel Aviv" and its main backer, the United States, to "set the clear goal of bringing down Iran's evil regime."
The aforementioned admissions, according to former Jerusalem Post editor-in-chief Yaakov Katz, were published without approval from the Israeli occupation forces' military censorship unit.
Back in January, the Wall Street Journal came out with a report saying the Israeli occupation carried out a drone strike targeting a defense compound in Iran as the US and "Israel" were both looking for "new ways" to "contain Tehran's nuclear and military ambitions."
The report stated that this marked the first attack carried out under the new far-right coalition government led by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani, said in May the United States "was and still is responsible for all the terrorist attacks of the Zionist entity on Iranian people and nuclear facilities, and it must bear the consequences of that."
This came after US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said, "In the event that Iran manufactures a nuclear bomb, America will support any Israeli decision to confront that step."
"As President [Joe] Biden has repeatedly reaffirmed, he will take the actions necessary to stand by this statement, including by recognizing Israel’s freedom of action," the US National Security Advisor stressed.
This comes although Iran has affirmed more than once that it has the technical ability to produce an atomic bomb, but it does not intend to do so, confirming the peacefulness of its nuclear program.
