Israel: Iran Must Face Nuclear Ultimatum

JERUSALEM (AFP) -- Israel's strategic affairs minister on Sunday called on the international community to slap Iran with a firm ultimatum of "a few weeks, a month" to stop enriching uranium or face a possible military strike.

Speaking to army radio, Yuval Steinitz, who also holds the intelligence portfolio, said the latest inconclusive round of nuclear talks between Iran and world powers proved that Iran was stalling.

"The Iranians are playing games and laughing all the way to the bomb," he said.

"It is time to present the Iranians with a military threat or some kind of red line, an unequivocal ultimatum from the entire world, (which must be delivered) by the United States and the West," Steinitz said.

When Israel wants the West to engage in a war for it it is ready to cry a river complete with bad bomb graphics, but when it comes to years of resolutions and condemnations on Israel it turns a blind eye and tells the West to fuck off.

Go fight your own wars and leave us out. We've been through two, and that was two too many.

So, it's okay for Israel to have nuclear weapons but nobody else in the Middle East... right?
Just checking.
Carry on.
