Israel’s MI chief: Iran has crossed ‘technological threshold’ in quest for nukes

Barak Ravid – Haaretz Correspondent

[Israel's] Military Intellience chief Amos Yadlin said Sunday at the weekly cabinet meeting that “Iran has crossed the technological threshold” in its quest for nuclear arms.

“Arrival at military nuclear capability is a matter of strategy,” Yadlin said. Iran is accumulating hundreds of kilograms of enriched uranium at a low level and hopes to utilize the dialogue with the West in order to gain time, which is required in order to achieve the capability to manufacture a nuclear bomb.”

Iranian media reported on Sunday that Iran has test-fired a new air-to-surface missile, in the Islamic Republic’s latest display of its military capability.

The missile test was carried out despite the offer by the administration of new U.S. President Barack Obama to engage Iran in direct talks if it “unclenches its fist”.

“HOPE & CHANGE” loosely translated … “Gee, I sure HOPE the Iranians CHANGE their mind!”

The U.S. State Department declined to comment on the Iranian press reports.

That’s because State has more on its plate than Hillary can handle either … like Afghanistan, finding a new RUSSIAN TRANSLATOR or finding new ways to be nice to the Human Rights abusing Chinese Government.
