(Defense MInister's Media Advisor/IMRA) - On Sunday, Ha'aretz reported that Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said Israel was considering an operation to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities, leading to widely reported vows of retaliation by the Iranian defense minister. In a Dec. 15 interview in Persian on Israel Radio, in answer to a listener's question regarding Israel's response in case of an Iranian nuclear attack, the minister answered: "If God forbid, Iran were to obtain nuclear weapons and would threaten to use them against Israel, Israel will know how to defend its citizens." The defense minister did not mention the possibility of an Israeli attack against Iran.
