Well, I think, look, not just here in Israel, but across the Middle East, people are weary of war.
We've just come out of two years of war in Gaza, a conflict that's not really gone away.
We've had the war between Hezbollah in Lebanon and Israel that was the year before last.
So...
People are tired of it, but I do think, speaking to people here in Tel Aviv on the ground, you know, they kind of accept what Prime Minister Netanyahu says on this.
They might disagree with him on lots of other things, but they do accept, I think, that for Israel, Iran poses an existential threat.
threat and broadly I think people are behind the government on this one now if this goes on for some time and we end up with more casualties in Israel if we don't see the fall of the regime in Iran opinion might change but at the moment I think people are weary of this
but they probably back it.
But it is going to have an impact.
You know, schools are going to be closed this week.
It's going to have an impact on the economy.
There are no flights coming into Israel at all at the moment.
So, you know, as that impact increases, opinion could change.
He clearly think that Iran is a problem for Israel that needs to be got rid of. And today it does seem like America and Israel are taking steps to do that. When you listen to that message from President Trump a little earlier, what he was talking about there is when this military operation is finished, he wants the Iranian people to rise up and take over the government. They want regime change in Iran, saying that this was a sort of once in a generation opportunity here.
Täällä Jerusalemissa on kuuluvat sireneiden ääniä. Kuuluvat yksityiskohtaiset yksityiskohtaiset yksityiskohtaiset yksityiskohtaiset
Well, we don't know much. The Iranians are saying that neither of them were hurt. We understand that the supreme leader has been taken to a safe place away from the capital. That's what's coming out of Iran. Certainly that is a pretty big step. If Israel and America are trying to decapitate the Iranian regime and remove the supreme leader, that is...
Tämä on todella iso tehtävä, joka saattaa saada erinomaisen vastauksen Iranilaisille, kuten voidaan ajatella. Meillä oli se vaara viime vuonna, joka kestää noin 12 päivää Israelin ja Iranin välillä. Ja sitten meillä oli vahva vastaus Iranilaisille. Meillä oli kasuutteita Israelissa. Ja tiedätkö, kuinka kauan tämä toiminta...
Israelin, Iranin ja niin edelleen. Meidän täytyy odottaa, miten Iranin vastuussa tulee. Heidän sotilaallisuutensa on suurin piirtein vähentynyt viime aikoina, mutta heillä on edelleen mahdollisuus saada Israelin kaikkiin kohteisiin.
So phase one, of course, of Donald Trump's peace plan saw the release of the remaining Israeli hostages held by Hamas in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails.
We've now had the announcement of phase two.
