TRUMP.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told\u00a0<em>CBS News&#8217; Sixty Minutes\u00a0<\/em>on Sunday that Tehran&#8217;s highly enriched uranium needs to be taken out of Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu stated, &#8220;Now, we&#8217;ve degraded a lot of it, but all that is still there, and there&#8217;s work to be done &#8230; &#8220;You go in, and you take it out &#8230; &#8220;I&#8217;m not going to give a timetable to it, but I&#8217;m going to say that&#8217;s a terrifically important mission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>An Iranian military spokesman, Brig. Gen. Akrami Nia,\u00a0warned that Iran is ready for such an operation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We knew that they had a plan, a scheme, to remove the uranium from the country. Therefore, we were in a state of readiness. I mean the armed forces, both the Army and the Revolutionary Guard,\u00a0in protecting these nuclear facilities where this enriched uranium is stored.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He threatened the U.S. and Israel with a wider war. He\u00a0clarified, &#8220;Meaning that the war will enter arenas that the enemy has not anticipated and has not included in its plans, and in these areas we can surprise the enemy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>***Please sign up for\u00a0CBN Newsletters\u00a0and download the\u00a0CBN News app\u00a0to receive\u00a0the latest news from a Christian perspective.***<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz indicated that the president is prepared for either a deal or a war.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is putting, giving diplomacy, every chance we possibly can, before going back to hostilities.

All of the American forces are still in the area. Israel is locked and loaded and ready for the American order.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Conricus added, &#8220;I think we have a rare historic opportunity here. That&#8217;s how many Israelis see it, (as) a rare historic opportunity to really set to chart a different course for the future of the Middle East, for the people of Iran, and importantly, from our perspective, for Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On a sad note, Abe Foxman, the director emeritus\u00a0of the Anti-Defamation League, passed away at the age of 86, and will be remembered as a man who pursued a &#8220;world without hate.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JERUSALEM, Israel\u00a0\u2013 Pakistan&#8217;s prime minister announced on Sunday that he received a response from Iran about the latest U.S. proposal to end the war.
