Netanyahu: Israel can't wait until a red line is set


The international community cannot ask Israel to keep waiting before acting against Iran  if it has not laid down red lines to Tehran over its nuclear programme, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday.

"The world tells Israel: Wait, there's still time. And I say: wait for what? Wait until when?," said the Israeli premier.

 "Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran, don't have a moral right to place a red light before Israel," he said in English at a joint meeting with his Bulgarian counterpart Boyko Borisov.
