John Kerry: ‘You cannot bomb away the memory of how to make a bomb’

Former Secretary of State John Kerry warned of the challenge of permanently eliminating the threat of Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon, noting the institutional memory remains even if the facilities are destroyed.

Hawzah News Agency- “You cannot bomb away the memory of how to make a bomb. You can’t bomb away the knowledge that they have developed'', Kerry said in an interview on CNN International’s “Amanpour ''.

“You can’t bomb away the broad array of technicians who’ve been working on this for years, who will go back to work if that’s the mission they’re given by the leadership of the country'', he continued.

''Iranians — Iran— is a proud, proud, proud nation,” he said. One of the things I learned in my negotiations was the level of pride was just enormous. They also have been committed to the destruction of Israel. That’s a cultural, almost religious, component of their policy. And so it’s very hard to say what exactly is going to bring them back to the table''.
