Gen. Dempsey: Israel incapable of destroying Iran's atom program
US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey postulated that an Israeli strike would not annihilate Iran's nuclear program.
 
"(...) I want to make clear, I'm not privy to their planning," he said. "So what I'm telling you is based on what I know of their capabilities. And I may not know about all of their capabilities. But I think that it's a fair characterization to say that they could delay but not destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities."
I cannot think of a single reason this might have been thought a good idea to say aloud in public.
