Israel Says Diplomacy with Iran Does Not Work
[VOA News] Michael Bowman - Israel says Iran's refusal to stop enriching uranium shows the futility of diplomacy to prevent Tehran from building a nuclear weapon. "I think that time is of the essence. Intensive sanctions can be effective. Iran is a threat to its neighbors, as well," Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni told CNN. "The international community is being watched, not only by Iran, but also by its neighbors. And when the international community shows hesitation, this is being perceived as weakness. And we live in a neighborhood where either you beat the bully or join it."
