Israeli Prime Minister Will Insist on Red Lines for Iran
(Israel Hayom) Shlomo Cesana and Yoni Hirsch - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not give up on his demand that red lines be placed before Iran, a senior diplomatic source told Israel Hayom on Wednesday. "Without red lines there is no reason [for the Iranians] to cease their pursuit of a nuclear weapon," said the source. Vice Premier Moshe Ya'alon said Wednesday: "The United States has outlined a red line that the Iranians are happy with. There have been arguments with the Americans in the past as well, as was the case during Operation Defensive Shield [in 2002 during the Second Intifada] when they asked Ariel Sharon to halt the operation and only later understood it was the right thing to do."
