[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz - The U.S. intelligence report released Monday claimed that Iran froze its nuclear military track four years ago. Israel's Mossad claims that the Iranians will be able to develop a nuclear bomb by the end of 2009; IDF Military Intelligence warns that Teheran will cross the technological threshold within six months; and now the Americans are putting the timeline toward the middle of the next decade, or 2013 at the earliest. Defense officials in Tel Aviv admitted Tuesday that the report would probably embolden Iran. The Americans are still traumatized by the blatant intelligence failure vis-a-vis Iraq's alleged WMD and do not want to be caught crying wolf again. Israel takes the more stringent track. As one defense official put it on Tuesday, "It is better to be safe than sorry." 2007-12-05 01:00:00Full Article
