Netanyahu: Iran Preparing Another Holocaust
Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu says Iran’s nuclear goals, and the fanaticism of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, pose a threat not only to Israel, but to the entire Western world. The former prime minister compared the growing threat of Iran to the rise of Nazism before World War II, and he wonders why no one seems to be taking the threat seriously. "It’s 1938, and Iran is Germany,” Netanyahu said, "and Iran is racing to arm itself with atomic bombs.” Haaretz newspaper reports that Netanyahu repeated that line as a chorus during an address Monday to the United Jewish Communities General Assembly.

Netanyahu says the threat cannot be taken lightly and that Ahmadinejad is "preparing another Holocaust for the Jewish state” through the force of nuclear weapons.
"Believe him and stop him,” Netanyahu said of Ahmadinejad. "This is what we must do. Everything else pales before this.”
Iran’s nuclear goal, says Netanyahu, "goes way beyond the destruction of Israel — it is direct to achieve world-wide range. It’s a global program in the service of a mad ideology.”
Israel should be joined by the United States in assuring that Iran does not gain the capability to create nuclear weapons, and he supports the Bush administration’s goal to isolate the Iranian threat.
" . . . 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,” Netanyahu said.
Iran can be stopped, Netanyahu added, but good nations must take action against evil ones to ensure that Jews in Israel and the West will not be subject to another Holocaust.
"No one will defend the Jews if the Jews do not defend themselves,” he said. "Iran’s nuclear ambitions have to be stopped.”
