"Without a direct military threat, Iran will not stop." He added that Iran approaches crossing his red line. "They have sort of crept up, but not crossed it," he said.

He falsely claimed Iran's determined to build a bomb. He knows no such intention exists.

"The threat of Iran's getting nuclear weapons is a direct threat to the existence of Israel," he added, "but I think that it is a supreme pivot of history. It threatens the peace of the world."

He repeats what he knows is false. What follows remains to be seen.

Moshe Arens is a former Israeli defense minister and US ambassador. On April 21, he headlined "As North Korea blusters, the Iranian nuclear clock ticks away," saying:

"It's only a small mental leap from the current crisis with nuclear North Korea to a potential future crisis with a nuclear Iran." 

"In this scenario, Iran - after having achieved nuclear weapon capability, and in possession of medium and long-range ballistic missiles - issues threats against Israel and the US."

"In Jerusalem, no one is going to just shrug off the threat."

"It is a real, present danger, and it will be weighing the advantages and disadvantages of a first strike against Israel."
