This is John Batchel, a conversation with Andrea Stricker, the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies,

about the chemical warfare program in Iran as a target for the Israelis and the Americans.

These are WMD labs, and more than a few of them are hidden inside universities or other institutions associated with medical health.

Here, Andrea describes hiding fentanyl.

Why would you hide fentanyl?

Because you can aerosol it and turn it into mass murder.

Here's Andrea to talk about dual-use universities. More of this later.

That's right. Israel has struck at least two universities related to chemical weapons,

research and development efforts, the Imam Hussein University and Malik Ashtar University of Technology.

And this is sort of Iran's longtime practice of co-mingling both civil and military capabilities

and making those really legitimate military targets under the laws of war.

Of course, the striking country has to consider the effect on civilians.

But, for example, one target in addition was the Tofig Daru Research and Engineering Company,

which is co-mingled with the Pasteur Institute in Tehran, which is a legitimate medical institution.

But Israel had evidence that the facility was supplying fentanyl to the regime's chemical weapons development,

and so they decided to eliminate it.
