Netanyahu Reacts to Iran Deal: ‘Would Threaten the Survival of Israel’

Netanyahu’s spokesman tweeted out the message he conveyed to Obama about the deal and what kind of threat it could pose to Israel’s security:

PM Netanyahu: In these fateful days Iran is accelerating the arming of its terror proxies to attack Israel #IranTalks

PM Netanyahu: This deal would legitimize Iran's nuclear program, bolster Iran's economy & increase Iran's aggression & terror #IranTalks

PM Netanyahu: Such a deal would not block Iran's path to the bomb. It would pave it. #IranTalks

PM Netanyahu: It would increase the risks of nuclear proliferation and the risks of a horrific war. #IranTalks

PM Netanyahu: The alternative is standing firm and increasing the pressure on Iran until a better deal is achieved. #IranTalks

Netanyahu himself has not tweeted since the deal was announced, but he did send this out hours beforehand:

Any deal must significantly roll back Iran’s nuclear capabilities and stop its terrorism and aggression. #IranTalks pic.twitter.com/BOQ7YcHxyn
