WANA (July 26) – In a speech to the US Congress, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that all anti-Israel protests held in the United States are financially supported by Iran.

 

Responding to this assertion, a White House spokesperson stated, “We do not believe that all protest activities occurring daily here are entirely funded by Iran.”

 

Previously, the US Director of National Intelligence had claimed that Iran is involved in financing and encouraging some protest activities in the United States.
