JERUSALEM: An Israeli minister said on Thursday that the US-Israeli strikes against Iran were “an immense blessing” for Israel, nearly three weeks into the Middle East war. “The debate should not be about when (the war) will end, but about how we are going to prolong and deepen the damage caused,” said Zeev Elkin, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party. “Every day of the campaign is an immense blessing for the State of Israel,” Elkin said, speaking on army radio.
