IDF: "Preparing a Military Option Against the Iranian Nuclear Program Is a Moral Obligation"
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kochavi said Sunday: "Preparing the home front for war is a task that must be accelerated in the coming years, especially in light of the possibility that we will be required to act against the nuclear threat." "The IDF...must prepare for every development and every scenario. Preparing a military option against the Iranian nuclear program is a moral obligation and a national security order." Such preparation includes "a variety of operational plans, the allocation of many resources, the acquisition of appropriate weapons, intelligence and training." "Blocking Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon with diplomacy is preferred, but history has proven many times that diplomacy can fail or succeed for only a short period of time, followed by violation or betrayal."
