Mossad stole Iran’s nuke archive and smuggled it back to Israel the same night
[IsraelTimes] Senior Israeli official tells The New York Times the spy agency discovered the warehouse in 2016 and had it under surveillance; Trump briefed on raid by Mossad chief Yossi Cohen

Spies from Israel’s Mossad agency discovered the top-secret location of a warehouse used to store Iran’s nuclear weapons files, broke into the building, took half a ton of documents and managed to smuggle them back to Israel that same night, The New York Times

...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
 reported Monday.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed the daring operation
... as daring as the rescue of the Israelis held hostage at the Munich Olympics, as daring as the kidnapping of Eichmann, as daring as the rescue of the hijacked hostages his brother died for in Entebbe...
as he displayed the trove of documents in a presentation aimed at proving that Iran has lied about its atomic weapon’s program.

However,
some men learn by reading. A few learn by observation. The rest have to pee on the electric fence for themselves...
 he gave few details on how or when the agents managed what he called one of the "greatest achievements" of Israeli intelligence.

A senior Israeli official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a secret mission, told the New York Times that the Mossad discovered the warehouse in February 2016, and had the building under surveillance since then.
If only they’d dressed up as squirrels, then the Iranians would surely have noticed the watchers sometime in that two-plus years...
The operatives broke into the building one night last January, removed the original documents and smuggled them back to Israel the same night, the official said, according to the paper.
So is the warehouse now empty, or have the Iranians been working from forgeries the entire time?
US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
 was informed of the operation by the Mossad chief, Yossi Cohen, on a visit to Washington in January, the official said.
And not a peep was revealed? So much for the journalistic claims that the White House leaks like a sieve.
The official said the delay in making the material public was due to the time it took to analyze the documents, the vast majority of which were in Persian.
Lots of Persian-Israelis around to help with the work, and none of them let out a peep, either.
Netanyahu described the archive as looking like a "dilapidated warehouse" in the Shorabad District in southern Tehran.
*Snicker*
"This is where they kept the atomic archives. Right here. Few Iranians knew where it was, very few, and also a few Israelis," Netanyahu said.
Do tell.
"Now, from the outside, this was an innocent looking compound. It looks like a dilapidated warehouse. But from the inside, it contained Iran’s secret atomic archives locked in massive files," he said.

He showed a picture, showing long rows of safes and said that the agents managed to bring back "half a ton of the material" consisting of fifty-five thousand pages and another 55,000 files on 183 CDs.
Half a ton spirited out in one night?? How many were involved in this little caper?
The cache, he said, contained "incriminating documents, incriminating charts, incriminating presentations, incriminating blueprints, incriminating photos, incriminating videos and more.

"We’ve shared this material with the United States, and the United States can vouch for its authenticity," he said of the information.
