No such IAEA report suggests Iran is advancing warhead research to be delivered by short, medium, or long range missiles. Saying so is inflammatory to stoke fear and call for intervention belligerently to stop what doesn't exist.
On February 29, The Times gave feature op-ed space to Amos Yadlin . He's a former Israeli intelligence head, now director of Israel's Institute for National Security Studies.
Giving him space for any reason was disgraceful. His outrageous commentary showed why. It was headlined: "Israel's Last Chance to Strike Iran," saying:
"Today, Israel sees the prospect of a nuclear Iran that calls for our annihilation as an existential threat."
Fact check
Iran poses no threat to any nation anywhere, including Israel, and Yadlin knows it. So does Obama and other top officials in both countries.
"An Israeli strike against Iran would be a last resort, if all else failed to persuade Iran to abandon its nuclear weapons program."
Fact check
Yadlin, Obama and officials in both countries know no weapons program exists. Yet they hype fears for what's really at stake - replacing an independent regime with a pro-Western one by any means, including war.
