Kissinger Says Iran Nuclear Crisis Close
(BBC) Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, 89, told the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, "For 15 years, the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council have declared that a nuclear Iran is unacceptable, but it has been approaching....In a few years, people will have to come to a determination of how to react, or the consequences of non-reaction. I believe this point will be reached in a very foreseeable future." Kissinger called for "serious" negotiations on both sides to look for solutions. "Unilateral intervention by Israel would be a desperate last resort, but the Iranians have to understand that if they keep using the negotiations to gain time to complete a nuclear program then the situation will become extremely dangerous."
