Israel: Iran Has Shown It Intends to Develop Nuclear Weapons
(Times of Israel) The head of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency, David Barnea, said Thursday: "It's clear that there's no need for uranium enriched to 60% for civilian purposes. There's no need for three enrichment sites. There's no need for thousands of active centrifuges - unless, that is, there is an intention [by Iran] to develop nuclear weapons." "Our eyes are open, we are prepared, and we will do with our partners in the security establishment everything that is necessary to alleviate the threat against Israel and thwart it by any means," Barnea said. "Iran will not have nuclear weapons - not in the coming years, not ever." Israel has charged that Iran is using the negotiations in Vienna to buy time to advance its nuclear work.
