[Jerusalem Post] David Horovitz - Israel will not tolerate a nuclear Iran, Maj.-Gen. (res.) Amos Gilad, the head of the Defense Ministry's Diplomatic-Security Bureau, has stressed to the Jerusalem Post in an interview. Asked about the complexities of any resort to military action, particularly since Iran has built its facilities to withstand a repeat of the 1981 destruction of Saddam Hussein's nuclear reactor at Osirak by the Israel Air Force, Gilad replied that critics said the Osirak raid "couldn't be done. And the fact is, it succeeded." He said the assessment in the defense establishment, which he shared, was that Israel could not be reconciled to a nuclear Iran - not only because it might press the button, but because the very fact of this regime having that weaponry would constitute an existential threat. "The Iranians are determined to obtain nuclear weaponry," said Gilad. "Iran is controlled by an ideology and a regime that has set itself the goal to be rid of Israel." 2008-11-14 01:00:00Full Article
