New Israeli Intelligence May Convince Biden Officials to Take a Harder Stance on Iran
(Jerusalem Post) Yonah Jeremy Bob - Certain Israeli intelligence and defense sources believe that Iran Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead set on a deal with the Biden administration to improve the country's standing. If true, this would mean that the obsessive debate in the U.S. over the need for speedy negotiations with Iran is irrelevant and that the Biden administration need not rush into negotiating a weak deal. The Mossad views its challenge as presenting the new administration with the evidence and have it internalize the new intelligence Israel seized from Iran in January 2018, which Obama-era officials never got to see. Will incoming Biden officials' views change once they see all of the raw intelligence about the five nuclear weapons and the already-prepared underground nuclear test sites?
