Iran will have nuclear bomb by 2014: Mossad
JERUSALEM (AFP) - The head of Israel's Mossad spy agency said on Tuesday that Iran would have a ready-to-launch nuclear bomb within five years unless its nuclear programme was interrupted. "Unless their programme experiences technical problems, the Iranians will have by 2014 a bomb ready to be used, which would represent a concrete threat for Israel," said Meir Dagan.
"This threat must be removed," he told parliament's Foreign Affairs and Defence Committee.
He acknowledged that maintaining international sanctions against Iran could lead to a halt of Tehran's nuclear programme.
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, meanwhile, said Israel expected the international community to take measures against Iran similar to those imposed against North Korea.
