Vice Prime Minister and Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya'alon said
on Thursday that all of Iran's nuclear facilities are vulnerable to a
military strike. He said that the West had the ability to strike, but
as long as Iran was not convinced that there's a determination to
follow through with it, they would continue with their manipulations.
The vice PM's comments counter reported remarks by U.S. defense
officials quoted last week, according to which the Pentagon was not in
possession of conventional arms strong enough to destroy all of Iran's
nuclear facilities. Ya'alon reiterated the Israeli stance that a
nuclear Iran was a global threat, saying that if Iran were to obtain
nuclear weapons, it would be a nightmare for the free world, a
nightmare for Arab states...and of course a threat to the State of
Israel.
