Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, spoke out on U.S. TV and called for President Obama to be more strict in regards to Iran and their possible building of nuclear weapons. Iran still denies that it is pursuing nuclear bombs, but Netanyahu claims they are six months from having 90% of what they need to build the weapons. He says we know they're in the last 20 yards, and that President Obama can't let them cross that goal line. He suggests Obama draws a line that if crossed by Iran would trigger a military intervention. Prime Minister Netanyahu has been criticized both in Israel and the United States because of his comments, but he stands his ground and continues to call for more action from the United States and President Obama.
