Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasted on Israeli television about his "influence" in shaping American policy toward Iran, saying he had effectively drawn the United States into a prolonged military confrontation to advance Israeli state interests, according to Middle East Eye. The remarks came during a television appearance in which Netanyahu highlighted what he characterized as his central role in steering Washington's strategic approach to Tehran.
Netanyahu described his influence as instrumental in entrenching sustained US military engagement in the region. His statements reflect a broader assertion by the Israeli leader that he wields significant power over American decision-making on matters of Iranian policy and regional security.
