Netanyahu to Rohani: don't need your "Happy New Year"

Iranian President Hassan Rohani, and the new Foreign Minister of Iran greeted the Jewish people and the Jews of their state with a happy holiday and Happy New Year, on the occasion of Rosh Hashanah. But the one who refuses to get excited is Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who does not want to refer to this step as a gesture of goodwill.

"I am not impressed by the greetings coming from a regime that only last week threatened to destroy Israel," Netanyahu said. "The Iranian regime will be tested only in its actions and not through blessings whose only aim is to divert attention from the fact that even after the elections it continues to enrich uranium, and is building a plutonium reactor to develop nuclear weapons which threaten the state of Israel and the entire world.

"The international community should not be deceived by illusions, but should rather require actions and not words."

Netanyahu said the international community must increase pressure on Iran to stop enriching uranium, "will remove enriched uranium from its territory, dismantle the illegal facility in Qom, and stop the plutonium reactor building."
