Israeli Defense Minister: "We Can in No Way Tolerate an Iran with Nuclear Weapons"

(Der Spiegel-Germany) Ronen Bergman and Holger Stark interview Moshe Ya'alon - Israel's Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon said in an interview: "The way the negotiations had been managed by the [P5+1]...was a historic mistake. Now we have a deal which is going to allow Iran to become a military nuclear threshold state....Iran will have access to $100 billion (in frozen funds)....They are going to intensify their activities and improve their terror infrastructure. And what about the missiles that can reach all of Israel and parts of Europe? They're not part of the deal." "One way or another, the Iranian military nuclear ambitions should be stopped. We can in no way tolerate an Iran with nuclear weapons. We prefer for this to be done through a deal or sanctions, but in the end, Israel should be able to defend itself."
