be giving and i have no doubt that the ability will be ready to strike if if it's all been given if it's a political decision i don't know i would say the political decision is will be dependent for. a number of. questions a number of developments and we are not yet. does israel have the capability to attack who will again are not familiar with the truth but i believe that there are very serious. the question is what of course we expect we do we will destroy iraq we will be will destroy iran's nuclear capabilities but the present proof can be or should be delayed with something like the tree of least which is very important and what about iran's ability to launch a counterattack i don't think that is going to be. a decisive kind of cultural pact

that we will strongly israel will be no though the. painful thing beyond what the political consequences on israel if it decided to attack iran the consequences of such political moves could be very very dangerous from an israeli point of view namely say. closing the strait of hormuz. stopping the flow of oil from the gulf. and you remove. we are not going to reopen the the flow of oil less a b. and c. do you think israel would launch a strike without the assistance of the us i would almost say the other or i don't think that there is a possibility that israel will say. we need. a firm of america the solution before we strike. it would be very unfair and put

it to the u.s. asked for such an approval and we want. so at the best i would say. we don't expect a green light. we can say it was probably a yellow light. and yet if the u.s. says it's not going to get involved it's all within a position that it would have to deal with the consequences of a strike i don't know when you think could do this like the answer is no i think the strike will be we will be. one strike or base no possibility of israel continuing to head with a military effort against iran the going to last for days or weeks or months we don't think capability i don't think it will be interesting to go from our point of view we have. a very limited in through that it's only destroy the nuclear keep the present u.k.

capability of to reach nuclear devices period we are not at war with iran will not go with the regime we have no intention of bringing bell the regime how much support is there amongst ordinary israelis for straight coming. to public opinion polls i would say very simple and they think. i don't think that the israeli government. make or take in according to public opinion polls probably by far too serious dangerous to say well we had the support of public opinion question is the right. kind of action or is it not for public opinion it is for good there is some criticism that the israeli government is focusing on the ground as a way of attracting attention away from internal problems at home what do you think

you know i don't think so i think that the problem of iran is a really a very serious problem and it is perhaps one of the most. strategic issues as well helping the facing since and i think for the. for the first time we are facing. that is almost the possibility to be a look. at it as a political reform and by the way the present government as well as new public of problems within israel have a very strong image or it is. because of the word about. what the implications for israel if assad remains in power in syria and if he doesn't well if he stays in power or at least for. well quite a long time. it will not be the kind of regime that we have known in the past it

will not be a strong it will not be a regime with which there is a plan or for a political settlement in the future if the regime is appears again do the research on the. what will happen in syria so many question marks have you no position and so you would about wealth from an israeli point of view. what's going to happen has syria become a battleground between iran and western nations no i don't think. anything of the mood. problems in. the problems. of the so-called arab spring and probably calls of really serious internal problems. with

a government with the presidency that is relying on the. relatively smooth through and win over the the ilo it's a very very popular. with nothing to do with iran and with. this city seems to be growing islamization across the region one of the consequences of this for the middle east and north africa. in a nutshell i would say we had the hopes of seeing the spring leading to democracy in the middle east forget about that well if you forget about the bible the word for the twenty third century but in the foreseeable future there for the forgettable. knew there were poor between flemmi regimes and democracy and we regimes and freedom of speech and the rights for women and etc etc

etc but we are still in the beginning of a process you know the fable saying go for it when he will south the thirty years ago about the french revolution and his agents too early to reach any conclusions this is definitely the case and we talk about the. police it's by far a much much too early who benefits from this islamization we are facing no a very unstable bit least we are facing an area in which the government in which countries don't have any moral is strong leadership that makes the. it's not even the slummy brotherhood that will be the system it will be the street it's going to be a little club and not

a democracy or not the restore procedure will not i don't know what because the during actions of the crowd will be the most important for very difficult it will be also and this is very very unstable for ours and for the burmese radical movements have taken time to mature. nurturing them and let them out of the box i think you can't answer i can only say we don't know where we stand with the old we do we do we hardly know where we stand with a little know where we are going where they are going. we have to be extremely careful with one hand follow closely what's going on and of others and to be very careful not to make bold to create any waves and that are you worried yes i am very worried. we are facing the of the next thing we
