Netanyahu mocks UK as “Islamic Republic of Britain” in podcast remarks

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu mocked the UK during a podcast appearance, referring to it as the “Islamic Republic of Britain” amid concerns about Britain’s political climate. He made the remark while discussing coverage connected to Randolph Churchill, and later linked his comment to a prior warning attributed to JD Vance about a potential “Islamic republic” with nuclear weapons. Netanyahu said Israel is working to ensure Iran does not become “another” such nuclear-armed “Islamic republic.”
