Guenter Grass, the Nobel Prize winning author of “The Tin Drum,” attacked Israel’s nuclear capacity and the threat it poses to Iran in a poem published in today’s Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper.

In the poem titled “What Has to Be Said,” Grass says that Israel, as a nuclear power “is endangering already-fragile world peace.” He describes its nuclear potential as “out of control, because no one can examine it.”
