JERUSALEM, Jan. 4 (UPI) -- Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's actions concerning Iran are based on his desire to have a place in history, a former security leader said.
"I have a very deep feeling that when it comes to Iran, Netanyahu is possessed by Menachem Begin, who attacked Iraq's nuclear reactor, and by [Ehud] Olmert, who many claim is responsible for the attack on Syria's reactor," said Yuval Diskin, who directed Shin Bet from 2006 to 2011.
