币界网报道:[US media: Israel says Iran is close to making a nuclear bomb, but US intelligence says it's "still early"? ] According to CNN, when Israel launched a series of strikes against Iran last week, it also issued a series of serious warnings about the country's nuclear program, suggesting that Iran is rapidly approaching a point of no return on its path to obtaining nuclear weapons, and that it is necessary to strike to prevent such an outcome. But according to four people familiar with the matter, the US intelligence assessment came to a different conclusion - not only is Iran not actively seeking to make nuclear weapons, but it is still three years away from being able to produce and launch nuclear weapons at targets of its own choice. According to a US official, despite Israel's air strikes for several consecutive days, US intelligence officials currently believe that Israel may have set back Iran's nuclear program by only a few months at most. Although Israel caused significant damage to Iran's nuclear facilities in Natanz, another fortified uranium enrichment base in Fordow was not actually affected.
