Robert Joseph: “I think Iran will use nuclear weapons. They will use it to intimidate. They will use it to blackmail us.”

I think it was, certainly, an intelligence failure of the first order.

It is certainly better that Iran, at declared facilities, is spinning fewer centrifuges rather than more centrifuges.

I do not believe that we are going to get what we need, which is unfettered anywhere anytime access to all facilities that are relevant, to all people that are relevant and to all records that are relevant.

I believe it will represent perhaps the single greatest strategic mistake in the national security area in the past 35-plus years of my career.
