Benyamin Netanyahu's obsession with Iran come from Benzion Mileikowsky

Professor Benzion Netanyahu conveyed a paramount lesson and important message to his son, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and to a distinguished audience that gathered to honor the professor on his 100th birthday.

"Since time is short, I will limit my remarks to one general comment.

The Jewish people's existence is in question due to the threats to annihilate us, which are openly declared by our enemies.

On one hand, Iran vows that Zionism will be destroyed when Iran possesses nuclear weapons.

On the other, the people of Israel are showing the world how a nation should behave when facing an existential threat: stare unflinchingly at the danger, calmly consider what needs to be done, and be ready to enter the fray when the chances of success are reasonable.

A powerful stance requires tremendous inner strength. The people of Israel show today that they have such strength, and this leads to my certain belief that our people will remove this danger."
