"These Israeli attacks on Iran have now forced the Iranians to develop a nuclear weapon. I think that the Israelis really would have used a nuclear weapon. That's where the word existential comes from. I would bet my next paycheck that that's what they're going to start developing now."
Former CIA officer John Kiriakou revealed he believes Israel seriously intended to use nuclear weapons against Iran, forcing the US to bomb Iranian facilities in June to prevent Israeli escalation. He argues that continued Israeli attacks have now pushed Iran toward developing its own nuclear deterrent, fundamentally changing Middle East security calculations.
