Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intends to use his upcoming speech at the United Nations to tell the world that Iran remains the root cause for the unrest in the Middle East, he told reporters Tuesday.
After the nuclear accord with Iran, the international community appears to have accepted the notion that Tehran, ostensibly barred from reaching nuclear weapons capability for a decade, no longer poses a grave danger to Israel and the Middle East at large - but in fact the opposite is the case, he said.
Netanyahu didn't directly attack the handshake between US President Barack Obama and Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, which took place this week on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, but said it was part of a general trend of the world welcoming Iran into the family of nations, which he intends to criticize during his speech Thursday.
