Iran vows ‘surprising’ response to Israel amid nuclear deal tensions
2018-05-02
[ALMASDARNEWS] Iranian Defense Minister Amir Khatami has commented on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement that Israel’s intelligence had obtained thousands of documents proving that Tehran has been secretly developing a nuclear weapons program.

On Tuesday, Khatami slammed Netanyahu’s speech as "Israel’s provocative actions" and promised that Tehran would take actions in response.

"This is our warning to the regime occupying Jerusalem and its supporters ‐ stop your dangerous behavior. The Iranian response will be surprising and you will regret it," Khatami stressed, as cited by Haaretz.

The comment comes after Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif mocked Netanyahu’s remarks on Twitter, saying that Israel’s revelations came in the run-up to the Trump administration’s planned announcement regarding the Iran nuclear deal on May 12.

Netanyahu stated on Monday that Tehran had been cheating despite signing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), by continuing to develop its nuclear weapons for future use. Israel has obtained about 100,000 files allegedly proving that the nuclear program had a military dimension called the "Amad Project," despite Iran being obliged to maintain a strictly peaceful program under the agreement.

The revelations come amid heightened tensions over the JCPOA, with the US administration considering withdrawing from the deal. President Trump has commented on Netanyahu’s speech, saying that he hasn’t rule out Washington leaving the accord. At the same time, La Belle France, the United Kingdom and Russia have called for the preservation of the agreement.

Meanwhile,

Israel on Tuesday invited teams of experts from Germany, the United Kingdom and La Belle France to examine Israel’s intelligence on Iran’s nuclear program. A high-ranking Israeli source also told Sputnik that Benjamin Netanyahu had informed Russian President Vladimir Putin
...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...

#3  The issue with iran is Mullahs. I cannot tell you how surprised they will be when they find themselves way past the losing end.


I do not like you, and I do not want to protect you anymore. So, you, Iran, are on your own with this and you have made yourself My Enemy.

Shalom
