Zionist “Defense” Minister Ehud Barak urged the world on Saturday t
o tighten sanctions on Iran before the Islamic Republic would enter "zone of immunity" against a physical attack."We have to accelerate the pace of imposing sanctions," he told a news conference in Tokyo.
The world must force the Iranians to ask themselves, "Are we ready to pay the price of isolation by most, if not all, of the world or should we decide to stop the nuclear effort?" he said.
"The world should ratchet up the sanctions," he said, "before the Iranians fully enter this immunity zone."
Barak has often used the phrase "zone of immunity" to mean a point where Tehran's nuclear program becomes invulnerable to physical attack.
However he brushed aside a February 3 article in the Washington Post that US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta believed the Zionist entity might possibly strike Iran's nuclear installations in the coming months.
Asked about the article, Barak said US support for Israel's security had been "extremely advanced and deep" under President Barack Obama.
"We appreciate the Americans standing behind Israel in the issue of security. But we could not conclude from this anything about details about what could happen in Iran," Barak said.
“We are still in the sanctions stage and expect them to get even tighter."
