“Along with Israelis on all sides of the political spectrum; I am deeply concerned about the recent nuclear deal signed with Iran. The current Iranian regime, acts with a dangerous combination of aggressiveness, fundamentalism, and state sponsored terrorism, threatening – even without nuclear weapons – freedom and democracy in this region and around the world. We fear that this agreement is a first step in the legitimization of Iran’s policies and strategies, and only acts to further destabilize a chaotic region.” (Israeli President Reuven Rivlin speaking at a meeting with Democratic Party legislators, 05/08/2015)
