Susan Rice, former National Security Advisor of the United States, recently discussed in a deep interview the role of Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of the Israeli regime, in encouraging American presidents towards war with Iran. Rice, reflecting on her experiences during her tenure in the White House, pointed to the political and security challenges that these encouragements have created.

Encouragement for War; A Strategy in Politics

Susan Rice noted that Netanyahu has consistently tried to make American presidents aware of the dangers posed by Iran, explaining that this encouragement does not limit itself to a single war. She stated that Netanyahu, using fear and a sense of danger, has always sought to create a consensus for military action against Iran.

Rice added: "Netanyahu has acted as if the only solution to regional security problems is war. He instills in us that if we do not attack Iran, we will be in danger." This approach, according to Rice, has had profound impacts on U.S. foreign policy decisions and has, in a way, pressured American politicians.

A Future with Greater Challenges

This former National Security Advisor also pointed out that war with Iran is not only against the interests of the United States but could also have irreparable consequences for the region. She emphasized that instead of war, diplomacy and political dialogue should be pursued to prevent escalation of tensions.

Rice continued: "We must remember that war not only incurs high financial and human costs but can also bring an end to peace and stability in the region." These expressions of concern reflect the necessity for a more thoughtful approach regarding Iran and its policies.

Given the challenges facing Americans in dealing with Iran, Susan Rice's words can be seen as a wake-up call for policymakers. She hopes that, considering past experiences, American politicians will focus on peaceful and diplomatic solutions instead of war.
