Israel Asks UN to End Iran Nuclear "Nightmare"
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said Wednesday that the issue of Iran's development of nuclear weapons should be moved quickly to the UN Security Council "to put an end to this nightmare." "We know that the Europeans are trying now to engage with the Iranians, but we know that the Iranians will never abandon their plans to develop nuclear weapons. They're only trying to hide it." "For many years, the world believed that this threat from Iran could be launched only toward Israel. But the Europeans realize that the Iranians are developing missiles with a range that will include Paris, London, Berlin, and southern Russia." "We are trying to do everything we can in order to convince the members of the IAEA...to take the right decision to move it to the Security Council, and after it, of course, for the Security Council to impose sanctions against Iran if it does not comply."
