Netanyahu asserts the U.S. and Israel's war against Iran will be decisive, not endless, and a pathway to peace.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday (March 2, 2026) that the U.S. and Israel's war against Iran will not be an endless one and that it will involve quick and decisive action.
"This is not an endless war, this is the gateway to peace" Mr. Netanayahu said on Fox News' "Hannity" program. "Yes I do," Mr. Netanyahu said, when asked if he saw a lasting path to peace in the Middle East.

Escalating cross-border strikes between Pakistan and Afghanistan expose a widening political, military, and societal divide between Islamabad and Kabul, despite earlier attempts at dialogue and de-escalation. Disputes over the handling of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, rising militant activities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Pakistan’s shift to a military approach deepen mistrust between the establishment and the Taliban leadership.

U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth delivered a defence of Washington’s military operation in Iran, calling it a “clear, devastating, decisive mission” aimed at destroying missile threats and preventing nuclear weapons. He accused Tehran of buying time to restart its nuclear ambitions and warned that any threat to Americans would be met without hesitation. The remarks come amid escalating tensions following U.S. strikes and widening conflict across West Asia.
