Former MI6 boss says Israel not planning major strike on Iran | Middle East conflict

The former head of MI6 says Israel is more likely to carry out a cyber strike on Iran's nuclear programme than launch a major military attack.

Sir John Sawers said his feeling was that Iran does not want a full military confrontation with Israel.

He also warned that more hardline factions of Hamas are likely to take control of the group following the killing of its leader Yahya Sinwar.

Commentator is wrong. He wasn't discovered then dealth with. Only after he was killed did Israel realise they had got him.

Sinear took the fight to the IDF. He was on an active mission despite not being a military leader. He was a political leader.

[chrisgreaves]

This guy was head of MI-6? How? He seems clueless and ignorant about Israel

[mahmoudxy]

How about human rights in Gaza ??? What a hypocrite!

[abaIdrisiyas]

Iran has a right to defend itself, right.

[Jamed]

Yeah he don't know nothing. It's clear Israel does what it wants and will certainly reply to iran!

[Humanity_Hope_]

Will Israel's ambitions end
European credibility around the World?

[rgsnr]

they will be reluctant in iran to use their pagers and mobiles

[Bill-edhr]

Wow. Cyber attack. This must be devastating

[Quan-pjdd]

Iranians were not surprised by October 7th. They were the masterminds.

[Soweto_Corner_Apparels]

why don't everyone else step aside and let Iran and Israel sort out their differences on their own since these fight is about the 2 of them

[JosefmengeleNHS]

Over 100 years ago they created a tank out of a farm tractor, after 100 years of military intelligence and we come to the point that a tank can not traverse mud. MI6??? Full of B/S.

The more MI6 recommends spending on terrorism that its own actions have undoubtedly feuled, the less there is for the British public purse. Look at how John Sawers feels so happy about that prospect.

[leahndodana]

Do these people still think they can still go talk about human rights? this is laughable

[Brandon-pjvc]

They hit Bibis house yesterday, this guy is completely clueless. Head of MI6 what a joke.

"Iran didn't know about their proxy's plans for the 7th October attack?"(paraphrased) Really? 😅😅 When will apparently intelligent people realise that Iran are responsible for and determine the actions of all their proxies? They had Iranian Generals in Gaza and Lebanon, as well as Syria and other proxies.

What western values mean? Slavery, colonialism, apartheid and imperialism.

Ever wonder why Sky's ratings are evaporating? Well "news" like this interspaced with the opinions of the presenter could be the reason. Just read the news, no opinions required, leave that to current affairs.

keep dreaming to save ayatollah, Israel is all in this time i guess
