- All the years Israel said an Iranian nuke was imminent…!
by Sunny Hundal, http://liberalconspiracy.org/
The US media is once again reporting Israeli speculation on Iranian attempts to build a nuclear weapon. … But here’s a timeline of Israeli warnings on Iranian nukes (via Opinio Juris)
–
1984: West German intelligence sources claim that Iran’s production of a bomb “is entering its final stages.” US Senator Alan Cranston claims Iran is seven years away from making a weapon.
–
1992: Israeli parliamentarian Benjamin Netanyahu tells his colleagues that Iran is 3 to 5 years from being able to produce a nuclear weapon.
–
1995: The New York Times reports that US and Israeli officials fear “Iran is much closer to producing nuclear weapons than previously thought” – less than five years away. Netanyahu claims the time frame is three to five years.
–
1996: Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres claims Iran will have nuclear weapons in four years.
–
1998: Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld claims Iran could build an ICBM capable of reaching the US within five years.
–
1999: An Israeli military official claims that Iran will have a nuclear weapon within five years.
–
2001: The Israeli Minister of Defence claims that Iran will be ready to launch a nuclear weapon in less than four years.
–
2002: The CIA warns that the danger of nuclear weapons from Iran is higher than during the Cold War, because its missile capability has grown more quickly than expected since 2000 – putting it on par with North Korea.
–
2003: A high-ranking Israeli military officer tells the Knesset that Iran will have the bomb by 2005 — 17 months away.
–
2006: A State Department official claims that Iran may be capable of building a nuclear weapon in 16 days.
–
2008: An Israeli general tells the Cabinet that Iran is “half-way” to enriching enough uranium to build a nuclear weapon and will have a working weapon no later than the end of 2010.
–
2009: Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak estimates that Iran is 6-18 months away from building an operative nuclear weapon.
–
2010: Israeli decision-makers believe that Iran is at most 1-3 years away from being able to assemble a nuclear weapon.
–
2011: IAEA report indicates that Iran could build a nuclear weapon within months.
–
2013: Israeli intelligence officials claim that Iran could have the bomb by 2015 or 2016.
–
There shouldn’t be any doubt that it is entirely foolish to rely on Israeli intelligence on the matter.
