(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz said on Friday that the U.S. and European countries "are losing patience" and are realizing that Iran is trying to drag out the nuclear negotiations. "There is room for international pressure - political, economic and also military - in order to convince Iran to stop its fantasies about a nuclear program," he said. Gantz emphasized that Iran is first and foremost a global problem before it is an Israeli one, but that he told U.S. officials that he had instructed the IDF to prepare to operate against Iran. In addition, he said, "There are many steps we discussed that will affect Israel's ability to be the strongest state in the region for many years to come."
