Former head of the Mossad: The plan for the destruction of Iranian nuclear facilities should already be on the table

December 3 2021 26

On November 29, the seventh round of negotiations on a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) between Iran, on the one hand, and the United States, France, Germany, China, Russia and the United Kingdom, on the other, to resolve issues related to Tehran's nuclear weapons development, started in Vienna. Israel, on the other hand, is preparing its "Plan B" in case the negotiations fail.

The Biden administration is pushing for a return to the 2015 JCPOA. Nevertheless, the Iranians have already violated the terms of the agreement and are enriching uranium at a higher level (up to 60 percent) than is necessary for nuclear energy. Iran insists on the exclusively peaceful use of the atom, but these statements have been refuted, and Tehran's centrifuges are now one step away from the level of uranium enrichment suitable for creating a nuclear weapon.

Israel, meanwhile, opposes such a deal, saying it clears the way for Iran on the way to a nuclear bomb. In this regard, Tel Aviv considers Washington's calls to return to the original terms of the JCPOA inappropriate.

The Israelis are ready to go even further to ensure their own security. Israel is ready to act alone to destroy Iranian nuclear facilities. Former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen said in an interview with the Ynet news outlet that Israel should consider decisive action if negotiations fail.

A plan of strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, if this country takes a path that threatens our existence, should already be on the table. We need to take away from Tehran the ability to destroy us, because we cannot deprive him of the motivation to do so.

- stressed the ex-head of the Mossad.

The photo is just great. This is what show-off means for the media. Two PTBs, 4 tons each and one in 2 tons, for a total of 10 tons. The carrying capacity of the F-16 is about 10 tons. What will they bomb Iran with? Will they shoot from the side cannon? The Israelis will not intimidate the Persians with this. I summarize - now they do not fight in single-breasted ones, and the waist is not there either.

  The photo was not picked up by the pilot, nor by the warrior.

    The photo was picked up by the Israeli Air Force, however, like everything else.

        I am not thrilled that the ayatolas might have a nuclear bomb. But the picture in this material is absolutely normal, it fully corresponds to the state of affairs, i.e. reflects reality. Israel has two options for reaching Iran.
        
        1. Cruise missiles from submarines. The option is interesting and working. However, these ammunition does not have the necessary characteristics to break through protective structures and reach underground facilities. So, it will not work to stop Iran's nuclear program.
        
        2. We need powerful American anti-burker bombs with perforated heads. This munition has a chance to get to the centrifuges or cause serious damage that will delay the Iranian program. The Israeli Air Force can now get to Iran with only one varick - flying through the airspace of Jordan and Saudi Arabia (through Turkey, Syria and Iraq is already difficult). However, the aforementioned bombs weigh very decently (from 900 kg and more each). In this case, the fuel must also be taken into account on the way back, if the pilots are not kamikaze. The fleet of Israeli tanker aircraft cannot hang in the skies of the Saudis - Riyadh is not a suicide, as it is a direct participation in open aggression against Tehran. So now think about the picture above, how to attach bombs ...

        The crews of Hel Hawir will refuel at an airbase in Kuwait, Bahrain, or Saudi Arabia. When flying there and back. It depends on which squadron of forces will be allocated for the raid. One bomb will be suspended on the plane. There is experience in destroying the reactor, in Iraq. Through the former ATS may well be. F-35I quite regularly flies over its territory and strikes. Iran is quite littered with Isaril friends. They will destroy leading scientists. Beat in a complex way. The Iranians cannot provide them with all the necessary equipment. Backwardness.

        It seems that everything is described above. Refueling in / over Saudi Arabia is a declaration of war on Riyadh Tehran. Naturally, the same applies to Kuwait and Bahrain. I wonder how much the Arabs need it? Nobody will fly through the ATS, especially on the F-35I - this is a real gift to Russia.

        Iran only lacks a war with the SA, with the main supplier of oil for the United States, Kuwait and Bahrain, and with local US bases.

  Remove one PTB. Instead, there are 2 monochromatic bombs. On the way back, the planes are met by refuellers.

    No no. There can be no Israeli Air Force tankers in the airspace of Saudi Arabia. I just wrote about this above. It is obvious that if Riyadh is allowed, Tel Aviv will not need any PTBs at all. Therefore, the picture is absolutely correct, and now the Israelis are racking their brains how they can turn this cambium, Well, and "show off for visitors".

      This is for now. Arabs have seven Fridays a week. Politics are very changeable. Even 1,5 years ago, Riyadh was called almost an ally of Israel against Iran. Today, his relations with Tehran have warmed somewhat. Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow.

Cohen is right - either the Persians abandon nuclear weapons forever, or their nuclear industry will be destroyed, there are no other options and cannot be. Attempts to solve the problem of the Iranian atom through negotiations are initially doomed to failure, the Shiite Orthodox ruling in Tehran do not even think about observing agreements with the wrong ones. Consequently, an armed method of suppressing Iranian nuclear ambitions cannot be avoided, and there is no point in putting the matter on the back burner. In one, the former head of the Mossad twisted his heart - plans (just like that, in the plural) to attack and destroy key facilities in the Iranian nuclear industry have long existed and work is underway on them. The Ayatollahs have not the slightest chance of success.

  These plans were ready 10 years ago. Arab friendly countries will help with the optimal route of the aircraft crews, with refueling, and with other operational measures. Iran will attack Russia, which is passively standing on the sidelines. And shit in a hat on the Syrian bridgehead. Assad exists on the Iranian, mostly funds.

  In anticipation of the resumption of negotiations on the return of the United States and Iran to the Vienna Agreements in 2015, the Joe Biden administration demanded that Israel refrain from sabotage at Iranian nuclear facilities. The newspaper The New York Times reports.
  
  Read, at least, your media. This is from November 22nd. If interested, I can throw off the link.
  Israel did not heed US demands.
  
  NYT reports that the Israeli government has rejected US claims. Israel insists on its right to use any means to counter the nuclear threat.
  
  There are just a few points.
  1. For the role of regional overseer in the Middle East, Biden chose not Israel, but Iran. Just as for the role of the main one in Europe, he chose Germany, not the WB.
  Therefore, yapping at Iran, Israel is doing it absolutely without any support. After the spring war with the Arabs, Israel begged for missiles in the United States. Next time, the US will have neither the will nor the money to help Israel. A year ago, Jews had to think well before voting for Biden. And it was too lazy to think. Now there is no one to complain about.
  2.Iran also has the right
  
  ... use any means to counter the nuclear threat.
  
  3. While Iran is the country most interested in the existence of Israel. Iran does not smile at all to be alone with the Arabs. But if Israel continues to continue its provocations, then the interest may disappear.
  How would not have to run for protection to Putin. But now Putin's interests temporarily, in some ways, coincide with the interests of Israel (as he himself understands them). Therefore, Putin turns a blind eye to your stupid chutzpah, about the fact that your planes are not shot down. But it may end soon.

Jews are like spoiled and impudent children. Those who are accustomed to the fact that all their Wishlist - whims are fulfilled. And if Iran has its own bomb, even one, then it will have to negotiate. And this is not acceptable for Israel! Iran should have its own nuclear bomb or Israel shouldn't have it !!

  Jews, as people with strategic thinking, work to ensure the freedom and independence of their country, using all available means. The Persians will not have bombs - that's what Cohen says. Not a single one, not a half, not even a quarter, and the Israelis have nothing to negotiate with the Ayatollahs - there is no topic for conversation.

    Stupidity is the main enemy of Jewish thinking!
    
    At the start of the War of Independence, Diaspora Zionist revisionists loaded Altalena's huge ship with an arsenal of weapons and shipped it to the fighting Jews of Israel. The leader of Etzel - the military organization of the revisionists - Menachem Begin offered 80% of the weapons that arrived to the army of Jewish socialists. However, on June 22, 1948, by order of the socialist leader Ben Gurion, Altalena's ship was destroyed by artillery along with a load of weapons and a 16-man crew. Begin, in a speech on the radio, called Ben Gurion a fool and an idiot.

      I could offhand list for a rather long time much more weighty examples of fratricidal actions from Russian history, but I do not think this is appropriate in this context. Stupidity is in no way a distinctive quality of Jewish thinking; this property is also inherent in representatives of other nations and nationalities. As far as I understand, you are not a Jew, are you?
