Jack Keane: Iran Built a Huge Complex Nuclear Enterprise at 12 Different Sites, No One Site by Itself Would Eliminate the Program

RUSH EXCERPT:
KEANE: "The decision really surrounds the fact that if fordo stands and it’s not destroyed by the Israelis or its capacity than the simple fact is Iran still has the capability to build a nuclear weapon so that is really the issue here and for the audience to understand Iran built this very huge complex nuclear enterprise with redundancy and resiliency at 12 different sites so no one site by itself would eliminate the program. And the program overall is fundamentally designed from the outset to survive an attack on the program. What the Israelis are doing right now. They built into the program that ability to absorb the attack, to survive that attack, to recover and to rebuild and it’s why the ayatollah in negotiations with the Trump Administration, why his negotiating team would never come to the table and say we will voluntarily dismantle. Why is that? Because then he gives up the program with verification. He always believed that he could recover and rebuild despite the Israeli attack. And then there is this one site that he has, he knows that the Israelis can likely not take it down and he hopes that this will survive. That is where we are. And the United States is pursuing it for the obvious reason the president is committed to it but also a strong signal to our allies that this is our closest ally in the region and they need help and we will help them. What does it send a message to our adversaries? Much the same. It helps build deterrence."
