From a security perspective, Gilad said, Israel has never had to deal with so many fronts. "We need to know how to priorities what to deal with first. In my opinion, we're talking about the Iranian front." Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak, he added, see and understand the depth of that threat and the danger it poses Israel.
