Panetta: US may have to use military force against Iran. "We have to remain strong," says former US secretary of defense.
Description:
While the US has "implemented unprecedented sanctions
and pressure on Iran, we may very well have to use military force to
back up our policy," Leon Panetta said on Thursday night.
The
former US defense secretary and CIA director made the remarks while
addressing around 600 people at the Anti-Defamation League's 100th
annual meeting.
"It is the Supreme Leader [Ali Khamenei] who is
key, and he is not likely to give up [uranium] enrichment," Panetta
warned. "We have to remain strong. We have to remain consistent."
Panetta
reiterated the American line that the US has "no friend, no better ally
in the world than Israel," but he expressed concern over the "growing
sense of isolationism in this country [the US]" over the last 10 years
of fighting two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the shifting power
dynamics among world leaders.
