Pezeshkian: Israel-Iran conflict a product of Netanyahu’s “devilish machinations”
07/09/2025 / By Ramon Tomey
- Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian accuses Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of scheming to drag the U.S. into Middle Eastern conflicts, framing Israel’s actions as part of a push for “forever wars.”
- Pezeshkian urges Washington to avoid involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict, warning that aligning with Tel Aviv would plunge the U.S. into an “endless pit” of war. He suggests President Donald Trump could instead promote regional peace.
- Iran denies ever pursuing nuclear weapons, citing a religious ban by Ayatollah Khomeini. Pezeshkian dismisses Netanyahu’s warnings as fearmongering and blames Israeli/U.S. attacks on Iranian nuclear sites for derailing negotiations.
- Pezeshkian claims Israel, with U.S. intelligence support, attempted to assassinate him by bombing a meeting location, but he survived due to “divine intervention.”
- The Iranian president condemns Israel’s actions in Gaza as destabilizing, warning further aggression will fuel chaos. Despite Iran’s own human rights abuses, he positions Tehran as a reluctant defender against Western-backed “aggression.”
The ongoing conflict between Tehran and Tel Aviv is a product of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “devilish machinations,” Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian argues.
He issued this claim during an interview with journalist Tucker Carlson released Monday, July 7. The Iranian leader framed Israel’s actions as part of Netanyahu’s push for “forever wars” in the Middle East. According to Pezeshkian, the longest-serving Israeli Prime Minister wants to drag Washington into this conflict.
“My proposal is that the U.S. administration should refrain from getting involved in a war that is not America’s war,” he told Carlson. Pezeshkian added that U.S. President Donald Trump has two choices – “guide the region towards peace and a brighter future” or side with Tel Aviv and get into “an endless pit” of war.
Carlson pressed Pezeshkian on whether Iran would abandon its nuclear program for peace, which the president answered in the negative. Pezeshkian also asserted that Tehran has never sought to create a nuclear weapon “not in the past, not presently, nor in the future. The creation of a nuclear bomb, he continued, violates a 1984 edict by then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini banning nuclear weapons as religiously forbidden.
Historically, Netanyahu has long warned of Iran’s nuclear threat – a narrative Pezeshkian dismissed as fearmongering. Even U.S. intelligence agencies have repeatedly affirmed Iran has no active nuclear weapons program. Yet stalled negotiations persist, with Pezeshkian blaming Israel’s June 13 attack on Iran and Washington’s subsequent attacks on three Iranian nuclear sites for derailing talks and eroding trust in U.S. assurances.
Pezeshkian accuses Tel Aviv of plotting an assassination attempt against him
The 70-year-old Pezeshkian, a heart surgeon by profession who was elected in July of last year, also recounted to Carlson an assassination attempt against him. He accused Tel Aviv of plotting this assassination attempt and noted that it had the backing of U.S. intelligence.
According to the Iranian leader, Israeli forces managed to identify his location where he was holding a high-level meeting and “tried to bombard the area.” Fortunately, Pezeshkian survived – something he attributed to divine intervention. “We are not afraid of martyrdom,” he said.
Pezeshkian also condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza as the root of regional instability, citing blocked aid and civilian casualties. His remarks underscore deepening tensions between Tehran and its adversaries, particularly as the Islamic republic faces heightened scrutiny over its nuclear ambitions.

Pezeshkian warned that further aggression would only fuel chaos, proposing that Trump could restrain Israel. His appeal to de-escalation contrasts with Iran’s own human rights record – including persecution of Christians – yet reflects a strategic bid to cast Tehran as a reluctant defender against Western-backed aggression.
As geopolitical fault lines harden, Pezeshkian’s allegations inject fresh volatility into an already combustible region. Whether his calls for dialogue gain traction or deepen the cycle of retaliation may hinge on Washington’s next move. For now, the specter of covert strikes and mistrust looms, leaving little room for optimism.
