READ MO George W. Bush, Israel, Iraq
"Believe him and stop him," the Israeli opposition leader said of
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. "This is what we must do.
Everything else pales before this."
In extraordinary interviews on Monday and Tuesday Likud leader, and
former Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu told a luncheon
audience and a radio interviewer. "It's 1938 and Iran is Germany. And
Iran is racing to arm itself with atomic bombs,"
Netanyahu repeatedly told delegates to the annual United Jewish
Communities General Assembly in Los Angeles which attracts 5,000
participants, "It's 1938 all over again."
Natanyahu was responding to reports Monday that President Ahmadinejad
declared that Israel was destined to "disappearance and destruction"
and that Iran had full nuclear capability. "Time is running in our
favor."
The General Assembly, an umbrella organization of American Jewish
communal organizations is a traditional pilgrimage for Israeli
politicians of all shades of opinion

According to an account by Peter Hirschberg, in Wednesday's Haaretz (An
Israeli newspaper), Netanyahu amplified his remarks in an interview on
Army Radio on Tuesday night.
Netanyahu insisted that Israel had the capability to wipe out Iran. "I
don't want to analyze the capability required to eliminate [the Iranian
nuclear] threat, but this capability exists..This capability is eroded
over time, and if we wait years then obviously this capability would
not exist anymore ... but right now I disagree with the claim that
nothing can be done against Iran."
When asked by Israeli radio host Razi Barkai if Bush could afford
embarking on another "military adventure" after Iraq, Netanyahu
replied,
"... Israel would certainly be the first stop on Iran's tour of
destruction, but at the planned production rate of 25 nuclear bombs a
year ... [the arsenal] will be directed against 'the big Satan,' the
U.S., and the 'moderate Satan,' Europe."
"Iran is developing ballistic missiles that would reach America, and
now they prepare missiles with an adequate range to cover the whole of
Europe," he added.
"No one cared then and no one seems to care now," he said, again
drawing on the Nazi parallel - Netanyahu warned that Tehran's nuclear
and missile program "goes way beyond the destruction of Israel - it is
directed to achieve world-wide range. It's a global program in the
service of a mad ideology."
"What happens in Iran affects what happens in the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict, not the other way round," he said.
"There is still time. All ways (to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear
weapons) must be considered. We can't let this thing happen."

Current Prime Minister Ehud Olmert drew fire from Democrats Monday by
publicly praising the war in Iraq. Clearly many Israeli leaders are
panicked that the political fallout from the anti-war tsunami will
weaken U.S. resolve. And an emboldened Amadinejad is giving them good
reason. Expect a major PR effort to lobby for action against Iran.
It's a scary tinderbox.
