Jews across the world must ratchet up pressure on their governments to stand in the way of an impending “bad deal” on Iran’s nuclear program, Diaspora Affairs Minister and member of the Security Cabinet Naftali Bennett wrote Saturday night in a letter to Jewish organizations across the United States and elsewhere.

“It would be dangerous to lift the sanctions and accept a deal which allows Iran to retain its entire uranium-production line,” Bennett wrote,” Bennett wrote in the letter later posted on his Facebook page.

The following is the letter in full:

These critical days in November will be remembered for years to come.

The Free World stands before a fork in the road with a clear choice: Either stand strong and insist Iran dismantles its nuclear-weapons program, or surrender, cave in and allow Iran to retain its 18,500 centrifuges.

Years from now, when an Islamic terrorist blows up a suitcase in New York, or when Iran launches a nuclear missile at Rome or Tel Aviv, it will have happened only because a Bad Deal was made during these defining moments.

Like in a boxing match, Iran’s regime is currently on the floor. The count is just seconds away from 10. Now is the time to step up the pressure and force Iran to dismantle its nuclear program. Not to let it up.

It would be dangerous to lift the sanctions and accept a deal which allows Iran to retain its entire uranium-production line.

It would be dangerous because Iran would, a year, two or three from now, just turn everything back on and obtain a nuclear weapon before the world can do anything to stop it.

It is not enough to shut off the centrifuges. They need to be completely dismantled.

We call upon the West to avoid signing a Bad Deal.

Israel’s responsibility is to ensure the security of its citizens and that is exactly what we will do.
