Israeli Leader Says Iran Warning 'Reverberating'

Israel's prime minister says his stern warning to stop Iran from going nuclear is "reverberates around the world."

Benjamin Netanyahu says his demand before the United Nations to draw a red line on Iran's uranium enrichment program could prevent the Islamic Republic from getting a nuclear.

Speaking Friday before a meeting with the Canadian prime minister, Netanyahu said the enrichment was the "only discernible and vulnerable part of their nuclear program."

The Israeli leader commented a day after he laid out his most detailed plea for global action against Iran. He said the world had until next summer at the latest to stop Iran from getting a bomb.

Israel says a nuclear-armed Iran would pose an existential threat and has warned it may strike Iran to prevent that from happening.
