Netanyahu: West not doing enough to stop Iran's nuclear program Barak Ravid

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the West's stance on Iran Sunday.

"The truth must be told," Netanyahu said at a government meeting in al-Quds (Jerusalem) . "The international community is not drawing a clear red line... and Iran is not seeing international resolve to stop its nuclear program. Until that happens, Iran will not stop its program. Iran must not have a nuclear weapon."

Furthermore, in recent weeks many leaders in the world pleaded the prime minister not to implement an "Israeli" military attack on Iran. This happened two weeks ago, when the Adviser of the Prime Minister in Germany, Angela Merkel, contacted Netanyahu and conveyed this message. And her position is highly similar to the officials of Britain, France and other leading countries in the European Union, who believe that there is still enough time to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.


The "Times" Magazine reported at the end of the week that due to the disagreement between the United States and "Israel" on the subject of the attack, the United States will significantly reduce its participation in the joint military exercise with "Israel", which is estimated to take place in October.

Earlier on Sunday, former Supreme Court Justice Eliyahu Winograd, who headed the government-appointed committee in 2007 that investigated "Israel's" shortcomings in the Second Lebanon War, warned that an "Israeli" strike on Iran "may endanger the future of the country, and said he doesn't support either the PM or the Minister of Defense.
