Barak: Netanyahu wanted to strike Iran in 2010 and 2011, but colleagues blocked him | The Times of Israel
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to strike at Iran’s nuclear facilities in 2010 and 2011, but was prevented from doing so, first by his army chief of staff and then by ministerial colleagues, Netanyahu’s former defense minister Ehud Barak said. Barak, who supported Netanyahu, was speaking in recordings broadcast on Israel’s Channel 2 on Friday night.
