Minister Benny Begin: Head of Mossad opposed bombing Iraq nuclear plant
Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 12 June 2011

“Among those opposing Operation Opera [AL: bombing Saddam Hussein’s Osirak
nuclear reactor] was an important, serious man, who had understanding and
knew the secrets. He expressed his opinion clearly before the national
leadership. He presented convincing arguments. He relied also on his
considerable experience and reputation. His recommendation was considered.
His recommendation was rejected. He was the head of the Mossad.”
Minister Benny Begin in his 10 June 2011 column in Yediot Ahronot
