PREVIEW: Impact of Israeli 'Decap' Strikes on Iran's Secret Nuclear Weapons Program

Guest: David Albright

David Albright assesses the impact of Israeli "decap" strikes against scientists and engineers in Iran's secret nuclear weapons program. While capable personnel can be replaced, the program's intensely secretive nature means vital technical details died with the individuals, creating a significant bottleneck in program continuity. These details, often uncommitted to paper and held solely in specialists' minds, require considerable time to reconstitute, potentially delaying the program by months or longer.
