British newspaper the Guardian published today an article entitled
"Binyamin Netanyahu demands 'red line' to stop Iran nuclear
programme." "Israel's prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, has called
on the international community to set a "clear, red line" to stop Iran
making a nuclear weapon, a line he claimed would be reached as early
as next spring," the article reads.
After demonstrating the threat of Iran in a graphical form, "Netanyahu
added: 'From there, it's only a few months, possibly a few weeks,
before they get enough enriched uranium for the first bomb.'" He added
that the world community has still about a year before the danger
becomes imminent.
"Netanyahu devoted almost all his UN address to the Iranian nuclear
threat, and only a couple of minutes to the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. Some European and US officials have conceded that by his
increasingly dire warnings about the Iranian programme, the Israeli
leader may not have persuaded the US to take military action but he
has succeeded in marginalising the plight of the Palestinians," – the
author of the article concludes.
Another article dedicated to the topic of Iranian-Israeli relations is
"Iran promises retaliation against attack on nuclear facilities"
published today by the Telegraph. "Iran has threatened to retaliate
"with full force" to any attack on its enrichment facilities after
Benjamin Netanyahu warned that the world had less than a year to stop
Tehran becoming a nuclear power" is the sub-headline of the article.
"Eshagh al-Habib, Tehran's deputy ambassador to the United Nations,
said that Iran 'is strong enough to defend itself and reserves its
full right to retaliate with full force against ant attack'. Insisting
that Iran was pursuing nuclear power solely for peaceful ends, he
denounced Israel as a regime 'based on terrorism'," the article
reads." Mr Habib denounced Mr Netanyahu's claims as 'baseless' and
accused him of hypocrisy because Israel is believed to be a
non-declared nuclear power."
