Mossad chief David Barnea has said in recent meetings about the Iranian nuclear deal that the US “is rushing into an accord that is a lie,” according to multiple reports in Hebrew media outlets this evening.
Barnea is quoted as saying the emerging accord is “very bad for Israel” and “a strategic disaster.”
The reports in Channel 12, Ynet, Haaretz and others do not cite a source, but all seem to have received the same information on the Mossad chief’s internal comments.
Barnea adds that an accord appears inevitable “in light of the needs of the US and Iran.”
He said the deal “gives Iran license to amass the required nuclear material for a bomb.” It will also provide Tehran billions of dollars in currently frozen money, increasing the danger Iran poses through the region via its proxies.
He stresses that a deal will not obligate Israel, and the country will act however it sees fit. He says that if it does not do so, it will be in danger.
