Ex-Mossad Chief: Trump Should Give «Israel» Bunker-Buster Bombs

Local Editor

Ex-Mossad Chief Danny Yatom said US President Donald Trump should give the "Israeli" entity new technologies to feel safer in the future.

While some on the Right in the "Israeli" entity praised the coming of US President Donald Trump in practically messianic tones, the 71-year-old Yatom said: "I hope he will be a good president toward ‘Israel', and he gives a very good first impression about ‘Israel', but as the saying goes, the proof is in the pudding."

In an interview with the JPost, Yatom proposed the following: Will Trump merely suffice with promises and platitudes about moving the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to al-Quds [Jerusalem], or "will he give us new technologies like bunker-buster bombs," so that the entity feels safer about future risk scenarios with Iran?

Improved bunker-buster bombs, a weapon that the US possesses, could destroy Iranian underground nuclear facilities.

He also voiced concern about Trump's talk of "isolation and not sending troops" anywhere, as the "Israeli" entity "needs the strongest power and democracy to get involved diplomatically and even militarily in various places in the world to bring order."

In addition, Yatom said he was "very worried about some of the statements by Trump that essentially were derisive of the CIA, FBI and military intelligence, as if he knows better than them."

He expressed hope that "it will get better, because he will switch many" of the agency heads with his appointees, whom he trusts and with whom he had personal rapport.

At the same time that Yatom said that getting bunker-buster bombs would be a huge way for Trump to concretely help the "Israeli" entity, he said that if the US does not give them to the entity, "we should make our own," due to the Iran nuclear deal's sunset clause, in which restrictions on its uranium enrichment program expire eventually.

He expressed confidence that if the "Israeli" entity started working on the development of the weapons enough in advance of the deal's expiration, "we have the science and technological ability to do it." This should happen even if the "Israel" Occupation Forces [IOF] in the near term does not need to be practicing bombing raids on Iran, since Iran is mostly observing the deal to date.

Regarding the relation between the Mossad and the CIA, the former spy chief remarked that the "CIA is a very serious organization and intelligence service... the Mossad's relations with it multiply their joint power and reach... and there are lots of shared brainstorming of ideas and even similar methods between the Mossad and the CIA."

Yatom pointed out to the CIA's abilities, which he knows well from working with former CIA director George Tenet and former CIA analyst Bruce Riedel.
