Teheran will target Israel’s Dimona reactor in a retaliatory attack if the Islamic regime is hit by an Israeli or US air strike, a Iranian official told the Arabic-language newspaper Asharq al-Awsat on Monday.
“Teheran is aware that Israel and the United States want to target Iran, but we are also aware that while they actually have the option to launch war, they do not have the option to end it. This is America’s and Israel’s point of weakness. We know that there is no solution to this point of weakness, thanks to the importance of the Gulf region, America’s problems in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the (geographically) small area of the Zionist entity,” the anonymous official was quoted by the paper as saying. He also specified that the Dimona reactor would be on the top of Iran’s target list in a potential war.
