Of course they won’t, Obama has no intention of stopping Iran.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Israel’s parliament Monday that the currentsanctions against Iran were not going to stop its nuclear program.

Speaking to the Israeli Knesset’s Defense and Foreign Affairs Committee, Netanyahu said stronger sanctions against Iran’s central bank and oil exports were needed to halt its nuclear ambitions.

“As long as there will not be effective sanctions on Iran’s central bank and oil industry, there won’t be any effect on its nuclear program,” Netanyahu said, according to Israeli media.

His comments come while tensions between Iran and the U.S. remain high, and the same week that U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Martin Dempsey is visiting Israel. The U.S. and Israel also said Sunday they were delaying a joint military exercise.

Israel’s vice prime minister accused President Obama of being hesitant to impose harsh sanctions because of “election-year considerations,” during an interview with Israel Radio Sunday.

As Tehran continues to pursue its nuclear program, the U.S. is concerned that Israel will launch a strike against Iran. Tensions between Iran and the U.S. have continued to rise in past weeks in response to sanctions, and analysts say the chance for military conflict is at its highest point in two decades.
