Mossad Chief Says New Nuclear Deal Is Strategic Disaster
(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - Mossad chief David Barnea said Thursday that the new nuclear deal with Iran will lead to a strategic disaster because it will facilitate Iran's efforts to obtain a bomb. In briefings with top Israeli government officials, Barnea said the deal will infuse Iran with billions of dollars that will be diverted to fund terrorist groups including Hizbullah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad, as well as other proxies, and will pose a challenge for both the U.S. and Israel. Barnea described the deal as worse than its 2015 predecessor because now there is more information about Iran's military capabilities. Barnea believed the new agreement would only add one to three months to the time Iran would need to achieve a nuclear threshold.
