Prince Turki Al-Faisal: In a Fairer World, U.S. Bombers Would Target Israel's Nuclear Arsenal Instead of Iran
A recent opinion piece by Prince Turki Al-Faisal, former head of Saudi intelligence, has sparked widespread reactions on social media after he criticized the latest U.S. strike on Iranian nuclear facilities and drew comparisons to Israel's Dimona nuclear reactor. اضافة اعلان In his article published Thursday in The National, Prince Turki wrote: 'In a world governed by justice, we would have seen American B-2 bombers raining bombs on Dimona and other Israeli sites, because Israel possesses a nuclear arsenal, is not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and is not subject to inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).' He added that those who justify Israeli attacks on Iran based on statements by Iranian leaders calling for Israel's demise tend to overlook statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has, since 1996, openly called for the 'overthrow of the Iranian government.' 'Iran's threats have brought ruin upon itself, but the West continues its hypocritical support for Israel—whether in its aggression against Iran or Palestine—despite a recent shift in stance by some countries.' These remarks recall a 2023 interview Prince Turki gave to France 24, where he commented on the possibility of an Israeli strike on Iran, saying: 'Netanyahu doesn't need a pretext. We've been hearing for 15 years about possible Israeli strikes on Iran, but nothing has materialized.' In a related development, Saudi Arabia has expressed 'deep concern' over the latest escalation, issuing an official statement saying it is 'closely monitoring the developments in the Islamic Republic of Iran, particularly the U.S. targeting of nuclear facilities.' The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the 'violation of Iranian sovereignty' and called for restraint, de-escalation, and intensified international efforts toward a political solution that ensures regional security and stability. Earlier, on June 13, Saudi Arabia had issued a similar statement strongly condemning Israeli strikes on Iran's nuclear program and the assassination of senior military figures, holding the UN Security Council accountable for halting 'this aggression,' according to the statement.
