Ka-Boom, Mossad Cables Destroy Bibi

++The Guardian reproduced some of the cables Al Jezeera received from Edward Snowden. The Guardian highlighted those cables between Mossad and South Africa which undercut Bibi Netanyahu's presentation to the United Nations where he produced the Boris and Natasha bomb graphic.

++At the time Bibi said Iran was months away from producing a bomb. Mossad told its spy colleagues that Iran didn't seem to be working on a weapons program but on filling the holes in its reactor program. At the time,Mossad said that you needed 90% enriched uranium but Iran only had reached 20%, most of which was diluted in the interim agreement.

++I would love to see cables about "nuclear triggers". Just because you can enrich to a level where a bomb could be created, you need information and the technology to produce a trigger for the device. General Cartwright who advised President Obama said that hey thought they did not have that capability.

++Juicy cables hitting the press.

++Meanwhile in Geneva, John Kerry was emphatic that the United States and all those of the p5+1 were on the same page in the negotiations. There is no great Obama fold being set up.
