CIA officer says he stopped Iran from getting the nuclear bomb Chalker told me that he wanted to repair his reputation. He had always been an American patriot, he insisted, and to prove it he was willing to talk publicly, for the first time, about his years of clandestine work for the C.I.A. — which, he said, had “prevented Iran from getting a nuke.” He insisted that he had helped obtain pivotal information that laid the groundwork for more than a decade of American efforts to disrupt the Iranian nuclear-weapons program, from the Stuxnet cyberattacks, which occurred around 2010, to the Obama Administration’s nuclear deal, in 2015, to the U.S. https://mathewingram.com/work/2026/04/02/cia-officer-says-he-stopped-iran-from-getting-the-nuclear-bomb/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
