"The West Must Not Fall into the Trap that the Iranians Are Setting for It": A Warning by Israel's Former UN Ambassador in a New Book
[Israel Today-Hebrew] The West must not fall into the trap set for it by the Iranians - this is the main recommendation of a new book The Rise of Nuclear Iran by Dore Gold, published Tuesday. Gold quotes a speech given by a senior Iranian official at a closed meeting in which he boasts that under the mantle of negotiations Tehran conducted with the British, French and Germans, the Iranians managed to complete the construction of new nuclear facilities, leading to a large stock of enriched uranium. Gold assesses that according to all the indications, the internal crisis in Iran after the last election will more likely lead to a policy of escalation by Iran and not more moderate action in foreign policy.
