Senior IDF Official: Israel Will Act if Iran Reaches Nuclear Breakout Status
(Israel Hayom) Yoav Limor - Former IDF deputy chief of staff Maj.-Gen. Eyal Zamir told the Israeli American Council on Saturday that Israel will act if Iran reaches nuclear breakout status. He said the world could not trust the Iranians, and Iran would only stop its efforts to acquire a nuclear bomb if it were faced with a clear, deterrent threat. Israeli officials would have preferred the U.S. lead such an effort, but if Washington does not act, Israel will. "I am familiar with the plans. We have the ability to do it," he said.
