Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu launched a scathing attack on world powers who are continuing to negotiate a nuclear deal with Iran — even after the Islamic Republic fired missilestoward the US consulate in Iraqi Kurdistan.

In video messages posted to social media in both Hebrew and English on Sunday evening — addressed to Israeli and American citizens, respectively — the former prime minister said it was “absurd” for world powers to continue to negotiate in Vienna with Tehran.

“The desperate rush to sign this flawed nuclear agreement with Iran is not only absurd, it’s downright dangerous,” Netanyahu stated in his English video, posted with the caption: “Every American family should watch this video.”

“Yesterday, Iran fired missiles in the vicinity of the American consulate in Iraq, and the US continues to charge ahead, along with the other powers, to sign a nuclear agreement that will give the ayatollahs a nuclear arsenal,” Netanyahu charged.

“It would also relieve sanctions and give them hundreds of billions of dollars in order to continue the terror that they waged yesterday and wage every day throughout the Middle East and the world,” he said. “This agreement is even worse than its predecessor, because in three years’ time, under this agreement, Iran will be a threshold nuclear state. It will have enough enriched uranium to create dozens and dozens of nuclear bombs and it will have the ICBMs [intercontinental ballistic missiles] to deliver them to any place in the United States.”

The final details of the burgeoning nuclear deal between Iran and world powers have yet to be revealed, and diplomats involved have said that some remaining elements are still being negotiated. It was not immediately clear which documents or intelligence Netanyahu was basing his claims on.

Such a deal, the former prime minister said, is “not merely unacceptable, it endangers not only my country, Israel, but your country, the United States, and the entire world. We should not let an aggressive rogue terrorist regime like Iran have nuclear weapons. Have we learned nothing?”

Western diplomats have been negotiating with Tehran for months in Vienna in order to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, which the US pulled out of in 2018 under then-president Donald Trump. For weeks, diplomats involved have been saying that a deal is close to being signed, but the Russian invasion of Ukraine last month has complicated efforts, as Moscow is one of the key negotiators in the talks. The EU announced on Friday that the talks were being suspended “due to external factors.”

Overnight on Sunday, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps fired a barrage of missiles at several locations in Erbil, claiming that it had targeted secret Israeli training centers. While the US State Department condemned the incident, and proclaimed that “Iran must immediately cease its attacks,” it did not make any reference to the Vienna negotiations.

In the Hebrew version of his video message, Netanyahu accused the “surrender government of Bennett, Lapid, and Gantz” of staying silent and doing nothing “instead of going out and fighting this, on every stage, at every forum.”

The former prime minister proclaimed that “when we return to power — soon, please God — we will come out against this agreement, we will act against it as we have before, and we will do everything we can to protect the State of Israel and the future of the Jewish people. That is my personal promise.”

When Netanyahu was in office, he vocally and publicly opposed the original 2015 deal, including giving a speech to a joint session of the US Congress against the agreement.

In a powerful speech to the United Nations in 2015, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the Iran Nuclear deal, explaining the incredible danger it poses to Israel and the rest of the world.

“This deal doesn’t make peace more likely. By fueling Iran’s aggressions with billions of dollars in sanctions relief, it makes war more likely,” he asserted. “Unleashed and un-muzzled, Iran will go on the prowl, devouring more and more prey.”

“Seventy years after the murder of six million Jews, Iran’s rulers promise to destroy my country. Murder my people,” he underscored. “Perhaps you can now understand why Israel is not joining [international leaders] in celebrating this deal. If Iran’s rulers were working to destroy your countries, perhaps you’d be less enthusiastic about the deal. If Iran’s terror proxies were firing thousands of rockets at your cities, perhaps you’d be more measured in your praise. And if this deal were unleashing a nuclear arms race in your neighborhood, perhaps you’d be more reluctant to celebrate.”

Netanyahu’s words have only become more relevant today.

Israel praised the former Trump administration for its hard stance on the Islamic Republic of Iran while condemning those who continually capitulate to the terror funding regime.

Mike Pompeo, who served as the Secretary Of State under President Donald Trump, during a recent visit to Israel explained that denying resources to the Iranian regime was a crucial effort of the Trump Administration.

“There’s no doubt that the policies that we adopted made Israel, the United States, and the world safer from the Iranian regime. I am as certain of that. We denied them resources,” he described.

“In the end, a nuclear weapons program takes a handful of things,” Pompeo noted, “one of which is the capacity to do the work, the scientific knowledge, the infrastructure that goes with it—all of the money it takes to build out a nuclear weapons program.”

“The JCPOA, this nuclear deal, was nuts. It guaranteed a pathway for the Iranians to ultimately develop a nuclear weapon,” he continued. “You need only take a look at a handful of the documents that a great, wonderful Israeli mission conducted outside of Iran, that shows the Iranian intent to continue to build out its nuclear weapons program.”

Pompeo then went on to warn that weakness in dealing with Iran may force Israel into conducting a major military action in the future.

“This is the risk of appeasement as you embolden your adversaries,” he underscored. “Ultimately, they put nations in the place where they’re stuck with only one tool, a military tool. This is not in the best interest of anyone. I pray that we do not force Israel into a really difficult decision one day.”

In Isaiah 17, we are told that in the last days, Damascus, the capital city of Syria, will be completely destroyed. Although we are not told how this will happen or by whom, Syria has become a hotbed of activity in the Middle East that those familiar with Bible Prophecy have been watching very closely. Iran has often used the war torn country to house weaponry to attack the Jewish state, resulting in multiple Israeli strikes.

Damascus’s destruction could also be a catalyst to the Ezekiel 38-39 war in-which Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others come together from the north, with weaponry supplied by Russia, to attack the Jewish state.
