U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance made a striking statement regarding Israel. Vance said, 'I think there are people in Israeli society who want to turn Iran into Libya. Would it be good for the U.S. for Iran, with its 90 million population, to become Libya? Absolutely not.'
U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance issued a notable warning regarding Israel's policies towards Iran, which oppose an agreement with Tehran. Stating that there are segments within Israeli society that seek to completely collapse Iran like Libya, Vance emphasized that the destruction of a country with a population of 90 million is entirely contrary to U.S. interests.
"IRAN TURNING INTO LIBYA IS BAD FOR THE U.S."
Vance said, "I think there are people in Israeli society who want to turn Iran into Libya. Is it good for the U.S. for Iran, with a population of 90 million, to turn into Libya? Absolutely not."
"THE PANIC IN ISRAEL IS UNWARRANTED"
Vance stated that Israel resorts to military force excessively to solve its problems, while noting that it should trust the U.S. more as an ally and show greater appreciation. The U.S. Vice President also said that concerns about the agreement strengthening Iran or Hezbollah are unfounded. Vance remarked, "I find this panic in Israel a bit strange. Because I think it stems from insecurity, and I believe the U.S. has earned more than enough trust in this region of the world."
The U.S. Vice President said, "We have done a very good job for this country and this government. I think the claim that we signed a bad agreement is not supported by the facts. Moreover, given the long history of relations between the two countries, this claim is not logical."
"THEY BELIEVE IRAN'S STANCE WILL NOT CHANGE"
Vance stated, "There is a strange panic I notice within the Israeli system. It's as if they believe everything that could benefit Iran will happen, and in the meantime, Iran's stance will not change. Honestly, I don't understand why anyone would believe that is true."
