Israel Sees Erosion of Western Resolve on Iran
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - In 2006, "the position of the world powers was that Iran should have no centrifuges," said an Israeli official, referring to a binding UN Security Council resolution calling on Iran to suspend uranium enrichment. "Then, in the [2013] interim agreement, they [the P5+1] accepted the concept of some sort of symbolic enrichment, to allow the Iranians to save face. If we are now talking about thousands of centrifuges, it is clear that we are not discussing something symbolic but a vast industrial capacity which is ultimately very, very dangerous." According to reports, an emerging deal would allow Iran to retain some 6,500 centrifuges.
