Permalink Israel blasts former spy chief over Iran

Israeli officials have criticized ex-Mossad chief Meir Dagan for calling a possible attack on Iran "a stupid idea," saying he should not share his personal views with others.

In his first public appearance since leaving office in early January, Dagan publicly argued against an airstrike against Iran's nuclear facilities. Addressing the Hebrew University on Friday, he described the possibility of a future Israeli airstrike on Iran's nuclear facilities as “the stupidest thing I have ever heard.” Dagan noted that any military strike may prompt a regional war and missile attacks from several fronts on Israel, adding that any attack on Iran would have no advantage for Tel Aviv. On Sunday, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Dagan's statement was not correct, and that he should not have shared his personal thoughts with everyone, Ynetnews reported. Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz also said that Dagan should have kept the remarks to himself.
