a page american tough to come into question. labor reforms boils. visit a town that's already given up on the crisis hit single currency. if you stay with us if. israel's nervousness over iran's nuclear program means the government of prime minister benjamin netanyahu is continuing to threaten a strike against it next we'll talk to the former head of israeli intelligence about the possibilities of a strike possible consequence. let's not have so much as it former head of israeli military intelligence so thank you very much for joining us here on r.t. we hear a lot of war very prickly among israeli leaders and cause for a military strike on iran is israel planning to attack iraq they have no dog in the military are doing their planning but they continuously plan is there and if they

are all there will be giving him no doubt that the military will be ready to strike if if it's all been given if it's a political decision i don't know but i would say the political decision is will depend on a number of. questions a number of developments and we are not yet there does israel have the capability to attack well again i'm not familiar with the details but i believe the dogs were in serious. the question is what of course and we expect we will destroy iraq to destroy iran's nuclear capabilities but the present both can be or should be delayed with something like the previous least which is very good and what about iran's ability to launch a counterattack i don't think it is going to be. a decisive kind of cult that

will destroy israel will be no doubt the. painful but i think beyond what all the political consequences on israel if it decided to attack iran the consequences of such political moves have been very very dangerous woman is good namely say. closing the straits of hormuz. stopping the flow of oil from the gulf. and we remove him out and we are not going for reopen the the flow of oil less a b. and c. do you think is what launch a strike without the assistance of the us i would almost say the other way around i don't think that there is a possibility that is where we'll 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 and the best i would say. we don't expect a green light move 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 do with the consequences of a strike i don't know when you think can do this like the answer is no i think the strike will be we will be. one strike base no possibility of israel continuing to head with a military effort against iran that would last for days or weeks or months we don't have the capability i don't think that we have the interest of the good from our point of view we have israel has will have a very limited influence and that is to destroy the u.k.

keep the present usually a capability of nuclear devices period we are not at war with iran we are not and we do we see we have no intention of bringing down the regime how much support is there a month ordinary israelis for strike on iran. according to public opinion polls i would say very hard support. with nothing. i don't think that the israeli government. make or break that in according to public opinion polls the problem is by far in serious danger as they were we had the support of public opinion question is the right. kind of action or is it not be for public opinion it is for good for there is some criticism that the israeli government is focusing on iran as a way of distracting attention away from internal problems at home what do you

think no no no 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. strategic issues as well has been facing since and i think for the. it's for the first time that we are facing a threat that is almost the possibility of the wheel not to be for them to really put the view that it has nothing to do with the very public opinion by the way the present government of israel has no public opinion problems with it is for they have a very strong image or if they support the beginning word about it i mean just syria what are the implications for israel if assad remains in power in syria and if he doesn't well if he stays in power at least for. why the long time.

it will not be the kind of regime that we have known in the past it will not be a stronger it will not be a regime with which there is a trump or for each and a political settlement in the future if the regime disappears again the least the chance that the. what will happen in syria there are so many question marks of having opened this and so you would about what from an israeli point of view. were for it to happen has syria become a battleground between iran and western nations no i don't think so no i don't think of anything to do with. the problem since the. internal problems. part of the so-called arab spring in part because of really serious internal problems. with

a government with the presidency that is relying on a small relatively smooth through minority the ilo it's a very popular. with nothing to do with iran and with and again 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 if we had any hope of seeing the arab spring leading to democracy in the middle east forget about that well if you forget about it they will do with her they have been in the twenty third century but in the foreseeable future definitely is forgettable. the. new path we were poor between flemmi regimes and democracy and we slavic regimes and freedom of speech and the rights for women.

etc etc etc but it we are still in the beginning of a process mulu fable saying go for the truth when he was asked the years ago about the feds or pollution and he said it's too early to reach any conclusions this is definitely the case when we talk about the whoosh and the least it's but. much much too early benefits from this islamization we are facing no a very unstable bit at least we are facing an area in which government in which countries don't have any more strong leadership that makes the. it's not even the slummy brotherhood that will be in the system it will be the street it's going to be a little crowd and not a democracy although the our stock reveal

a lot i don't know what because the the reactions of the crowd will be the most important for three because they will be answered and this is very very unstable for hours and for them of the things radical movements have taken time to mature who has the nurturing them and let them out of the box or i think you can't answer i can only say we don't know where we stand with the we do we know we hardly know where we stand with the really don't know where we are going where they are going and we have to be extremely careful with one hand who follow closely what's going on and with others and to be very careful not to make those who create any waves and that are you worried yes i'm very worried.
