October 25, 2007 (LPAC)--The Israeli daily Ha'aretz reveals that current Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said that Iranian nuclear weapons do not pose an existential threat to Israel. The comments were made a few months ago in a number of closed discussions, where, in these discussion, she criticized Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert for exaggerating the threat of an Iranian nuclear bomb as an attempt to rally the public around him by playing on its most basic fears.

Given the fact that everyone knows that Livni formerly worked for the Mossad, the article mentions the fact that former Mossad chief Ephraim Halevy, only a few days ago, said that Iran does not pose an existential threat to Israel.
