Iran's Stance on Israel and Nuclear Deterrence

If the Israel issue also turns into a dirty game, Iran

has countermeasures. In other words, one of the issues is that

if the game is to move beyond the rules of international law,

I think that, in principle, Iranian officials have devised measures

for that situation, especially in the geography of—

Israel. If we are not supposed to survive, then Israel will not survive either.

That much I can say in general. —

You can be a little more direct.

In any case, there are all kinds of dirty bombs that do not require that technology

—the strange or more sophisticated technology of a nuclear weapon—

Just put this enriched uranium on a missile—

and it can have the same result. And that is not all.

There are other things as well. In any case, the Iranian scientist's

hands are not tied to the atomic bomb alone.

So, are you saying that this, um, uranium we have acts as a deterrent?

Deterrence, at a minimum, against the Popular Mobilization Forces—

Who can guarantee me that our uranium is only that? Look, you are in a vast country.

The global market for unaccounted-for uranium is also significant. A large amount of uranium around the world is unaccounted for

and has no records or accounting.

Therefore, we must not

limit our scenarios. The scenarios are unlimited.

Our minds may sometimes limit the scenarios
