WANA (Aug 31) – Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stating that the Israeli leader deceived the U.S. administration and orchestrated a strategy to drag Washington into a military confrontation with Iran on behalf of Israel.

 

In a post published on X (formerly Twitter), Araghchi highlighted public remarks made by Netanyahu in Hebrew, pointing out a sharp contrast between how the Israeli leader addresses his domestic audience and how he communicates in English.

 

“In Hebrew, Netanyahu openly crows that he suckered the U.S. Administration into a war on Iran on behalf of Israel,” Araghchi stated. “Netanyahu explicitly laughs about how he ‘influenced’ America through 1,000 hours of airtime on U.S. networks. In English, he praises POTUS’ leadership.”

 

The Iranian foreign minister concluded his post by labeling Netanyahu a “Serpent”.

 

Araghchi’s post included a screenshot referencing televised media coverage in which Netanyahu discussed his decades-long strategy regarding Iran and his extensive efforts to influence American media and security policy.
