L’information ne fera pas la Une de la presse occidentale. Pourtant, alors que les bruits de bottes retentissent à nouveau dans le Golfe, il est important d’écouter ce que dit Ehoud Barak :
Barak admitted that “[Israel and the US] both know that Khamenei did not yet ordered, actually, to give a weapon, but that he is determined to deceit and defy the whole world.” Wolf Blitzer asked, “What does that mean, that the ayatollah has not given the order to build a nuclear bomb?” Barak replied:
It’s something technical. He did not tell his people start and build it — a weapon on — an explodable device. We think that we understand why he does not give this order.
He believes that he is penetrated through our intelligence and he strongly feels that if he tries to order, we will know it, we and you and some other intelligence services will know about it and it might end up with a physical action against it.
So he prefers to, first of all, make sure that through redundancy, through an accumulation of more lowly enriched uranium, more medium level enriched uranium and more centrifuges and more sites, better protection, that he can reach a point, which I call the zone of immunity, beyond which Israel might not be technically capable of launching a surgical operation.
Le vrai problème, reconnaît ainsi Barak, est que les dirigeants iraniens veulent mettre leur pays à l’abri d’une attaque (ce qui prouve, bien sûr, leur caractère diabolique !)
