If I am a U.S. intelligence officer I take anything a foreign intelligence entity tells me with a huge grain of salt. They are operating in the bounds of their nations best interest. Hand picked as some the most dedicated servants to their state. At times intelligence agencies get it wrong but its quit common for them to propagate false information when it is in their interest. I get quite suspicious of any so called "intelligence" that gets propagated to the public. It may at times be truth but is made public to support the agenda of the government. Leaks are sparse and usually by those in the intelligence community that have a serious problem with the course of their government. There is not a nation on the earth that has not willfully passed off false intelligence to another nation even allies.ptown_trojans_1;1702295 wrote:I get what you are saying, but if I am a U.S. Intelligence officer, given the Israeli track record, I take everything they say about the Iranian nuclear program with a huge grain of salt.
Lets not be naive to the fact that nations seek to develop nuclear weapons so that they can give nuclear powers the middle finger. To think that is not a reasonable consideration for Iran would be foolish. Look no farther than North Korea. That said war is already afoot in the Middle East and in Europe. Dangerous times are upon us. You have an exact parallel pre-WWII the only different dynamic is the principal powers possess nuclear arms. Lets be frank Russia is at war with NATO. Because of the nuclear dynamic a hot all out proxy war between the two fixing to engulf Ukraine.
