Israel: If Iran acquires nukes, will be able to blackmail US

EPA-EFE/ABIR SULTAN

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday, at a meeting with the United States bi-partisan congressional delegation, that should Iran acquire nuclear armaments it will be able to threaten and blackmail any city in the United States.

"Iran is 50 North Koreas. It is not merely a neighborhood bully like the dynasty that rules North Korea. This is an ideological force that views us, Israel, as a small Satan, and views you as the great Satan," he went on to say.

The Israeli prime minister previously underscored that only a credible military threat would put a stop to Iran's actions.
