Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Facebook video wishing luck to the Iranian people in their struggle for liberty reverberated positively on social media sites Tuesday.
It even appears that a large number of comments were from Iranians.
One commenter wrote: "Thank you for your support. It's a shame so many others are staying silent."
Another commenter wrote "Long live Israel." Still another wrote in Farsi: "I pray for a day there will be direct flights between Jerusalem and Tehran."
Others asked Netanyahu to offer more than words and show "comprehensive and unified support for the citizens of Iran."
"The wonderful people living in Iran and in Israel have been close friends since the dawn of history, but recently Islamist extremists overran our beautiful country," another commenter wrote. "Please make the distinction between the people and the government in Iran, just as we do."
Another wrote: "The two nations of Iran and Israel are brothers, and after the victory we must open an Iranian embassy in Tel Aviv."
Several commenters called on the International Criminal Court to bring Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to justice.
