Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel told the United Nations on Thursday that he believes Iran’s ability to make an atomic weapon will be irreversible by next spring or summer—a far more specific time frame than he had asserted before—and he argued that a “clear red line” must be drawn to warn the Iranians they must halt their nuclear fuel enrichment before then.

Will the detonation of the Iran nuke finally awaken the sleeping giant (i.e., the West)?

What are you talking about? The bomb must be stopped. If the bomb goes off in Israel, Israel would be gone. I lived in Hiroshima and toured the site extensively. One atom bomb would wipe Israel out. We must top them!

Boil on humanity’s a** cauterized.
