According to a report by Fox News, on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, Former Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Michael Oren.
He said: “I think the Israeli people, we know we may be under missile fire again. And you’re in my home here, I’ll be running to my bomb shelter 30 times a day. I’m willing to do that. But I’m willing to do it in a different way than we did during Operation Epic, when the Israeli military was kept on a relatively short leash.”
“We weren’t able to hit all the targets we wanted to hit. We never hit Kharg Island. We never hit those oil refineries. And we were told to stop at a certain time, and we stopped.”
“This time, I think the Israeli people wanted to go out, all out. Everything is a target, particularly those oil refineries, particularly Kharg Island. And we don’t stop, we don’t stop until this regime no longer either exists or no longer can threaten any of its neighbors, including the State of Israel.”
