JERUSALEM, Oct. 25 (UPI) — Israeli officials are preparing for the possibility of Iran developing nuclear capability, an official at Israel’s Foreign Ministry said.
“You prepare for a natural disaster even though you do everything in your power to make sure that it doesn’t happen,” the unnamed official said in a report in The Jerusalem Post. “You have fire drills, even if you do everything you can to ensure that a fire never breaks out.”
The foreign and defense ministries regularly draw up contingency plans for any number of unwanted scenarios, the official said.
