Citing North Korea Nuke Test, Netanyahu Warns About Iran Threat 
----------------------------------------------------------------


 
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited the move by North Korea
Monday in a bid to drum up further support for issuing a "credible
military threat" against Iran over its nuclear program.

Benjamin Netanyahu: "And the sanctions themselves, even tougher
sanctions, will not stop them. Case in point, North Korea. Have
sanctions, tough sanctions stopped North Korea? No. And the fact that
they produced a nuclear explosion reverberates everywhere in the Middle
East, and especially in Iran. They say where is the world? Where is the
international community? Where is the tough response?"
