Former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert told Al Jazeera that while he strongly criticises Netanyahu, 99% of Israelis supported attacking Iran, believing it 'unavoidable'. He claimed the strikes successfully degraded Iran's military power but stressed Israel doesn't seek to destroy Iran or prolong conflict. Olmert stated Israel aims to 'change the pattern of relations' but will never accept a nuclear-armed Iran. Despite his usual opposition to Netanyahu, he acknowledged widespread public approval for the operation. The remarks reveal rare unity among Israelis regarding Iran policy, even across political divides. Olmert's comments suggest military action enjoys broad consensus despite international criticism.
