‘War is Bringing Iran Closer to a NUCLEAR BOMB’— Ex-Chief of Israel’s Shin Bet Ami Ayalon

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to former Director of Shin Bet Admiral Ami Ayalon. He discusses why Israel’s wars against Palestinians and the Arabs are wars that Israel wants, why the perpetual conflict will hasten the end of the Zionist project, why he supported the JCPOA nuclear deal in opposition to Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government, the failures and shameful actions of Benjamin Netanyahu from Gaza to Lebanon to Iran, Israel’s financial support for Hamas prior to 2023, why he feels Israel does not understand its enemy: the Palestinian people, why the US-Israeli war on Iran has brought Iran closer to making the decision to build a nuclear weapon, Israel’s treatment of whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu, who exposed Israel’s nuclear weapons program, why Israel has never been attacked by Al Qaeda or ISIS, and much more.
