Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Israel Aerospace Industries on Sunday, where he used the stage and the opportunity to convey, once again, a direct message to the Biden administration: "We have made it clear to our American friends that more limited agreements [vis-à-vis Iran] are also unacceptable to us."
Unlike the days of the Obama administration, when the prime minister was careful not to attack the administration over the emerging agreement, Netanyahu is now stepping up his tone.

During the visit, Netanyahu was presented with IAI's activities by Chairman Amir Peretz and CEO Boaz Levy. Prime Minister Netanyahu also toured an exhibition of advanced means and capabilities in the fields of defense and offense.
Prime Minister Netanyahu: "I am very impressed by the defensive and offensive tools we are developing here. We are determined to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Our vehement opposition to a return to the original nuclear agreement contributes to the American decision not to do so. We have also made it clear to our American friends that more limited agreements are also unacceptable to us.
"In any case, as I make clear to them, I make it clear to the world and I will make it clear here again: We will do whatever we need to do to defend ourselves, by ourselves, against any threat."
The visit was accompanied by National Security Council head Tzachi Hanegbi, Chief of Staff Tzachi Braverman and Prime Minister Avi Gil's Military Secretary.
