Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a Fox News interview aired on March 2 that the U.S.–Israel military operation against Iran will not be “an endless war,” but that it could “take some time.”

Netanyahu also said that he doesn’t expect the military campaign—aimed at neutralizing Iran’s nuclear threat—to drag on for years.
