'Israel's freedom of action is not subject to negotiation,' says Israeli lawmaker

Otzma Yehudit lawmaker Yitzhak Kroizer told JNS on Tuesday that he opposes negotiations with Iran, stating, "An enemy is to be eliminated, not negotiated with." He argued that Iran, which calls Israel the "Little Satan" and the U.S. the "Great Satan," actively seeks to destroy both nations through its nuclear program, ballistic missiles, and support for terror proxies. Kroizer emphasized that Israel must believe Iran's stated intentions, drawing a parallel to the October 7, 2023, Hamas invasion. He asserted that "Israel's freedom of action is not subject to negotiation" and that time is on Israel's side due to Iran's paralyzed economy and fear of Israeli action. Kroizer advocated for a prolonged campaign to completely dismantle Iran's nuclear capabilities, ballistic missile program, and funding for proxies, rather than seeking sanctions relief or interim agreements.
