Netanyahu has been fearmongering for 20+ years now and has no credibility left.

Your ad hominem is irrelevant. The evidence of Iran’s nuclear weapons research is incontrovertible, and the point is that Israel believes it to be an existential threat if Iran obtains nukes.

They believe that because Iran’s leaders specifically call for the destruction of Israel, just taking Iran at its word.

There's no evidence Iran has pursued anything since entering the agreement, the Israeli intel is rehashed old news[1].

Hardly a leader of Israel, the leader of a political group with 7 seats out of 120 in their equivalent of the House of Representative. The Palestinians say the same thing about Israel, at least in Israel it is the minority viewpoint.

In Iran it’s the Ayatollah saying it on the regular, and they’ve made it basically a national holiday. [1]
