Yossi Cohen, head of Mossad the Israeli spy agency is “100 percent certain” that the Islamic Republic remains committed to developing a nuclear bomb and believes the international community must change or throw its nuclear deal with Iran, according to Associated Press.

“Then Iran will be able to enrich enough uranium for an arsenal of nuclear bombs,” Cohen said, according to the meeting participant, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was discussing a classified security matter.

Cohen also criticized the decision to lift sanctions on Iran, saying it has resulted in “significantly increased” aggression by Iran, and noted Iran’s continued development of long-range ballistic missiles.

“As head of the Mossad, I am 100 percent certain that Iran has never abandoned its military nuclear vision for a single instant. This deal enables Iran to achieve that vision,” Cohen said, according to Associated Press. “That is why I believe the deal must be completely changed or scrapped. Failure to do so would be a grave threat to Israel’s security.”

Iran nuclear deal has sparked some debate inside Israel’s security community, with some voices pointing to positive aspects of the deal in that it has delayed Iran’s nuclear development.
