Israel’s Strike Changes Everything in Iran

 UANI Senior Advisor Ray Takeyh and Reuel Marc Gerecht write: "With Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear program, ballistic-missile facilities and senior officers and scientists, the age of diplomatic nonproliferation is over. It had been on life-support since North Korea went nuclear in 2006. Negotiations with Tehran tried hard to keep alive the hope that a deeply ideological regime massively invested in developing atomic arms could be dissuaded by sanctions or the allure of commerce. We don’t know yet how successful the Israeli raids were. . . . It’s not unlikely, however, that Jerusalem will turn out to have paralyzed, or even convulsed, the Islamic Republic for the rest of the 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s rule."
