Professor Bolaji Akinyemi, Nigeria’s former Minister of Foreign Affairs has pointed out that Benjamin Nethanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, is pushing for World War III.
The erstwhile foreign minister disclosed this while speaking during an interview on ARISE Television on Tuesday about the Israel-Palestine ongoing massacre.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has claimed tens of thousands of lives and displaced many millions of people and has its roots in a colonial act carried out more than a century ago.
Israel declared war on the Gaza Strip after an unprecedented attack by Hamas, an armed Palestinian group on Saturday. Professor Akinyemi believes that Netanyahu wants to utilize the war between Israel and Hamas to start World War III by pitting the United States against Iran.
According to Akinyemi: “Netanyahu is trying to actually start a Third World War by pushing America into a confrontation with Iran in this war if he could only succeed. And that is his plan to get America and Iran into a direct military confrontation, then, God help all of us.”
