Israeli Expert: Natanz Attack Serves U.S. Interests

(Media Line-Ynet News) Daniel Sonnenfeld - The explosion at Iran's uranium enrichment site in Natanz was intended as a warning, signaling that the Iranians are crossing someone's red line, said Dr. Yoel Guzansky, a senior research fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies at Tel Aviv University and a former member of Israel's National Security Council. It also "shows that Iran is completely transparent and open to infiltration operationally, and intelligence-wise." Guzansky said that if the explosion inflicted serious damage on the Iranians' nuclear program, the attack will weaken the Islamic Republic's position at the negotiation table. "Iran wants to arrive at the negotiations or the agreement as a country on the verge of acquiring nuclear capabilities," he says. Therefore, the attack serves U.S. interests because it has secured more time to negotiate before Iran has passed the "point of no return."
