(IsraelNN.com) Former Mossad chief Danny Yatom told IDF Army Radio on Wednesday that only military action can prevent Iran from achieving nuclear weapons capabilities and it’s doubtful that the United States would approve such a step. When asked if he had reached the conclusion that only a military strike could stop Iran's drive toward nukes, the ex-Mossad head said "yes, I have reached that conclusion."

The "world needs to understand - an Iranian bomb poses a risk to its safety,” said Yatom, adding that he could not see "a U.S.-led world ready to take risks involved in striking Iran's nuclear facilities."
