Looks like Netanyahu’s bomb illustration did the trick. The
European Union and the United States decided to toughen up nuclear sanctions.
They hope that this will punish Iran and hold back Israel form a military
strike. A top Western official said:
“What we will do next is intensify sanctions. They will
include the financial area, definitely.”
The European Union foreign ministers will meet in Luxemourg
on October 15 to discuss the measures that will be taken. Experts from the E3+3
(The trio of European nations plus the United States, Russia, and China) will
get together in London soon to figure out their “negotiating position for any
further meetings with the Iranians.”
Unfortunately, just last week, Israel stated that they think
Iran is on the verge of bankruptcy because of sanctions, so sanctions will not
work in “dissuading the regime in power in Tehran from pursing its nuclear
ambitions.”
