This is 1938 and Iran is Germany

In a meeting with 60 ambassadors and foreign emissaries, former PM, Benjamen Netanyahu, urged his audience to not stand idly by but to act to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear state. Netanyahu compared Iran to Nazi Germany and the time to 1938, the eve of World War II, meaning that it is not to late to stop the Iranian program but that time is indeed running short.

Netanyahu said that the longer the stick with which the Iranians would be threatened the lesser the chances of its ever being put to use.

According to a review given by head of Mossad yesterday, Iran will achieve a fully functional bomb by 2009, giving roughly a 1000 days to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear state.

Iran's president has repeatedly threatened to wipe Israel off the map.

So far, efforts to impose sanctions on Iran have failed due to the opposition of Russia and China.

Netanyahu criticizes Israel's lack of response to attacks from the Gaza Strip

In a meeting of the Likud party in the Israeli Knesset, head of the opposition and former Israeli PM, Benjamen Netanyahu, criticized the government's decision to to respond to Qassam launches from the Gaza strip despite the ceasefire which was declared over a week ago between Israel and the Palestinian terror groups.

Netanyahu warned that the government's policy may have tragic consequences and claimed that as long as the Palestininans launch rockets, Israel cannot sit idly by.

The Likud party also called the government to not permit the return of Palestinian PM, Haniyeh, to Gaza if the latter travels to Syria or Iran, for such visits can only be in order to discuss continued terrorism against Israel.

The Likud party has 12 members in the Israeli Knesset.

The Palestinian PM, Ismail Haniyeh, of the Hamas organization, embarked today on an international tour of several Islamic states, including Lebanon and Iran. Haniyeh is expected to ask for financial aid of Iran as the economic situation within the PA is very poor. Haniyeh is also expected to request assistance in lifting the international isolation imposed on his government. The isolation results of Hamas' positions. The organization which today controls the government of the PA, does not recognize Israel and rejects its right to exist. The organization's goal is to establish an Islamic state over all the territory of the State of Israel. Many in Israel believe that due to Hamas' extreme views negotiations between it and Israel are doomed to fail from the onset.
In local news, former PM, Binyamin Netanyahu, was today question by the police regarding an alleged involvement in a corruption scheme which allegedly occurred during his administration in the late 1990's.

The condition and whereabouts of the three soldiers is unknown, though news of an impending deal regarding the release of Gilad Shalit is common.
Israel's PM, Ehud Olmert, expressed in a speech yesterday his willingness to release many Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails in exchange for Gilad Shalit. He also called upon the Palestinians to return to the negotiating table and declared the for a true and lasting peace Israel will be willing to withdraw from many territories in the West Bank. This aroused great opposition within Israel as the Israeli army (IDF) has already withdrawn from the Gaza strip a little over a year ago and rockets are still being launched against Israeli population centers to this day.
