Heinrichs on Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Amid Recent Attacks: The Israelis Took Out the Nuclear Scientists

RUSH EXCERPT:
HEINRICHS: "Well, it‘s significantly degraded. I mean, obviously, the big problem with the Iran deal, the Obama negotiated Iran deal, the jcpoa, there were several things that. Republicans had a problem with that President Trump had a problem with. One was there was not. They still had the ability to do domestic enrichment. They still had a nation missile program that could be an icbm program. Eventually, they still had nuclear scientists that that they were not allowing to for inspectors to have access to. And in this sweep sweeping attack on the part of the Israelis, they took out, the nuclear scientists have been killed. They took out the head of the irgc, and they took out obviously significant components of the nuclear program. We‘re going to learn more about specifically what those were. So the whole program is dramatically set back, including just the brains behind the operation. And but I think it is interesting that President Trump still says, listen, we can talk, though, because there‘s going to be more attacks coming. So you should you should say you‘re done and let‘s have a conversation. Obviously, it does not look like that‘s going to happen anytime soon until the Iranians feel like they‘ve done a sufficient retaliatory strike against Israel to the extent that they can at this point."
