‘It’s a disaster for Israel’ – defense official on Iran nuke deal

Brigadier General (Res.) Amir Avivi, director of the Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF) told i24NEWS on Thursday why he believes a deal between Iran and world powers on Tehran’s nuclear program would be “a disaster for Israel.”

“I think it’s very important that the American establishment and also the EU understand that the vast majority of officers, also those who are retired and in reserve, think that this agreement between the US, Europe, and Iran is a disaster,” Avivi said.
