Israeli election front runner Benjamin Netanyahu says his first mission if elected prime min
ister would be to 'thwart the Iranian threat'.
In an interview with Israel's Channel 2 TV late Saturday, Netanyahu said he fully intends to sabotage Tehran's nuclear efforts once and for all.
"Iran will not be armed with a nuclear weapon. It includes everything that is necessary to make this statement come true," said Israel's leading candidate for prime minister.
Israel, the sole nuclear power in the Middle East, accuses Tehran of seeking nuclear weaponry while the UN nuclear watchdog, in its Sept. 15 report on Iran, declared that it could not find any "components of a nuclear weapon" or "related nuclear physics studies" in the country.
Netanyahu, who is currently facing war crime charges in Gaza, claimed the Islamic Republic's uranium enrich
ment is the greatest danger to Israel and humanity.
After weeks of denying that it used illegal weapons in the densely-populated Gaza Strip, the Israeli military finally admitted Friday that it had pounded the Palestinian coast with at least twenty white phosphorus bombs.
The 1980 third Convention on Conventional Weapons has banned the use of white phosphorus as a weapon, even against military targets situated within population centers.
International attorneys have filed war crime charges against 15 Israeli political and military officials, including Ehud Olmert, Tzipi Livni and Ehud Barak.
