United Nations: Israel Is Helping Syrian Jihadists, Including ISIS
Netanyahu has been warning for over 20 years that Tehran is close to achieving its pursuit of nuclear weapons. “The most dangerous threat to Israel’s existence does not lie in the Arab countries – but in Iran,” then-MK Benjamin Netanyahu wrote in a Yedioth Ahronoth column in February 1993.
“The rulers of Iran have said repeatedly that they will have an Islamic bomb and that its first target is Israel,” he argued in a piece titled “The greatest danger,” claiming that Iran will develop its first nuclear bomb by 1999 – 16 years ago.
Amidst mounting geopolitical tensions, Iranian officials said Wednesday they were increasingly concerned about the United States of America’s uranium-enrichment program, fearing the Western nation may soon be capable of producing its 8,500th nuclear weapon.
“Our intelligence estimates indicate that, if it is allowed to progress with its aggressive nuclear program, the United States may soon possess its 8,500th atomic weapon capable of reaching Iran,” said Iranian foreign minister Ali Akbar Salehi, adding that Americans have the fuel, the facilities, and “everything they need” to manufacture even more weapons-grade fissile material.
“Obviously, the prospect of this happening is very distressing to Iran and all countries like Iran. After all, the United States is a volatile nation that’s proven it needs little provocation to attack anyone anywhere in the world whom it perceives to be a threat.”
Iranian intelligence experts also warned of the very real, and very frightening, possibility of the U.S. providing weapons and resources to a rogue third-party state such as Israel.
