Iran may face military action by Israel if it doesn’t stop its threats and nuclear program, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said in an interview with the quarterly Politique Internationale.

“We know that some in Israel are seriously considering” military intervention, Sarkozy said in the 32-page long interview. “If Iran continues its senseless race to get the bomb and continues to threaten its neighbors, we are facing the risk of a military intervention,” he said, adding that everything must be done do avoid a confrontation and to persuade Iran to abandon its illegal nuclear activities.
