What can be done about Iran? In Israel, a dispute is reportedly raging between the IDF and the Mossad about the greatest threat facing Israel. IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gadi Eisenkot thinks that Hezbollah is the greatest threat facing Israel. Mossad Director Yossi Cohen thinks Iran's nuclear program is the greatest danger facing the Jewish state.
While the media highlight the two men's disagreement, the underlying truth about their concerns has been ignored.
Hezbollah and Iran's nuclear program are two aspects of the same threat: the regime in Tehran.
