Netanyahu says Iran strives for nuclear bomb 'stockpile' to destroy Israel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Iran seeks to develop a "stockpile" of nuclear bombs aimed at destroying Israel, two days after Israel bombed military targets in the Islamic republic.

"Iran is striving to develop a stockpile of nuclear bombs to destroy us, equipped with long-range missiles, intercontinental missiles that Iran is trying to develop," Netanyahu said in a speech to lawmakers as Israel's parliament began its winter session. "Iran could threaten the entire world at any point."
