Week of surprises
The media are NOT treating Bibi's latest nonsense kindly. Even BBC is treating Bibi with the same verbal distance it normally reserves for "far right" nationalists. Bibi's side is full of claimeds and allegeds.
Mr Netanyahu produced what he said were copies ... Not only did Mr Netanyahu give alleged details of "Project Amad", the Iranian nuclear weapons programme reportedly mothballed in 2003, but he said the project had continued at the Iranian defence ministry. He quoted the head of the alleged programme as saying "special activities" would continue "under the title of scientific know-how developments". Such work continued this year, Mr Netanyahu said, without giving evidence. EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini said the documents had not put into question Iran's compliance with the deal but they should be analysed by the IAEA.Without the names, I'd be sure BBC was talking about Trump or Putin. When you lose both BBC and EU, the game's pretty much over. ¶ 8:39 AM
