Target Tehran From Israeli Journalists Yonah Bob And Ilan Evyatar
Manage episode 489776863 series 3142017
Israel has launched direct strikes inside Iran against its nuclear program, military leaders, and nuclear scientists. These events were predicted in detail more than a year-and-a-half ago in the book TARGET TEHRAN by Yonah Jeremy Bob, Senior Military and Intelligence Analyst for The Jerusalem Post, and fellow journalist Ilan Evyatar.
Bob and Evyatar anticipated and warned of this precise escalation: Mossad's covert operations on Iranian soil, the doctrine of preemptive self-defense, and the strategic urgency surrounding Iran's nuclear and regional ambitions. Over two pages in TARGET TEHRAN the authors described a massive air assault on Iran carried out in three waves by more than one hundred Israeli aircraft and a similar number of drones. They detailed the routes taken, the types of aircraft and weapons involved, and the targets-Iran's heavy water reactors, uranium conversion plants, research reactors and other facilities involved in Iran's nuclear weaponization experiments. They addressed the questions of casualties and revenge attacks as well. TARGET TEHRAN serves as a live roadmap to what is unfolding right now.
Being on the ground in Israel, with access to high-level military and government sources and classified top secret briefings, Evyatar is qualified to discuss other potential targets that Israel might hit. He can also offer detailed, up-to-the-minute insight into the current context of the conflict between Israel and Iran, and what it bodes for the future.
