The
Israeli-born British jazz saxophonist, novelist, and political activist Gilad
Atzmon said in an interview with BBC Persian that Israeli lobbyists pressure UK
and US for war on Iran.
He added
"Israel threatens Iran every day. We hear every day that the Jewish lobby here
in the UK and in the US exerts pressure on Britain and America to enter war
with Iran, a war which can easily turn into an atomic battle.”
The
Israeli celebrity condemned Israel for racism, adding "I am against the existence
of a country which is founded on race, nationalism, and expansionism, which was
formed by doing wrong to the aboriginal people of the region, that is the Palestinian,
and which threatens the whole area, including Iran.”
