Sky’s Martin Austin speaks to former British ambassador to Iran and former chair of the Joint Intelligence Committee, Sir Simon Gass.
Asked how Iran could respond if Israel hit their nuclear facilities, he says: “The truth is we are in unchartered waters, and we can’t be sure that Israel wouldn’t take that opportunity.”
He added: “If they did, that would be a highly escalated reaction in the eyes of Iranians, and a much stronger response might be possible.”

In the world where old men, mature ppl can't speak the truth due to their ego…. What a shame
This ambasador is another israeli propagandist
How about the west helping the Persian people to tske their country back????
Uncharted waters when the Iranian sleeper cells wake up
SKY and News are mutually exclusive.
Regime change in Iran. Long live King Reza Pahlavi.
Israel is losing the war and they have to save face
Israel is an ilalegitimate state
Iran must be diving for cover everytime the phone rings 😂
It's not Israel but Israel, America and its allies……😅
Pro Israeli drivel. F off
Bias and unhelpful British old idiots talking full of hates war mongering
Welcome all, to unchortled waters.
Arrogant wester media,, still praise little Israel,,which suffers at heart in a small strick like we saw Iran conducting against them
I don't think he would be so illiterate as to say 'unchartered waters' for a start. I think he is talking about uncharted waters.
Sky news is not news channel is a propaganda news channel
Your channel is propagating western views only; a casualty of war!
The degraded reporter and the ex ambassador propagandists, still calling it the Iranian Regime as they were commanded to do by the genocidal Israeli Regime.
Can't trust this media organisation to speak or report the truth.
The ex-ambassador might as well be saying fweee wodger.
Russia is allied with Iran, yes? So this is going to get interesting.
Unchartered waters = The will to invade/murder/occupy are gone !! The world has changed…
Where’s professor Marandi?
Uncharted Waters?
The Brits love to use language that makes them seem so diplomatic and peaceful when they are the ones that established this pirate state that has caused such misery in that region.
Oh the infamous “uncharted waters” comment just before the middle east is torn a new one again. I saw this same statement just before all major wars in the middle east.
😂😂😂😂😂
Iran partners are called proxies but US partner are called allies
Shah the king go back to your country and take it from the fanatics..
Is it me, or do they like being unified in the key words they use. The guys behind the curtains. It's Iran, NOT Iranian regime!
Ayatollah must go so the war in the region stop. He must go
IRAN IS WEAK
Uncharted waters meaning people fighting back against the deranged cult of Islamist..
Both sides are clearly revelling in the conflict as it brings meaning to their strange religious faiths.
This region has been a problem throughout history and i personally feel humanity would be better off without either side.
The sheer stupidity of recommending not to go for the facilities that will produce Iran’s future nuclear arsenal is absolutely bewildering.
It isn’t I chartered territory at all. We’ve been here many times in my lifetime alone.
I wonder what the world would look like with out Islam …. Islam is one big false farcical made up BS …
Well, British created this monster decades ago….British Petroleum had a major role in destabilizing Iran back in the 70s
Israel needs to deal with iran
Keep fooling yourselves and believing your own lies, if iran was scared of the zionist, they will not do what they just did.
Why the f
Are these lefties afraid of "escalation "
BEFORE iran gets the bomb?
WHY THE F IS EVERYONE TRYING TO PROTECT THE TERRORIST NUKE PROGRAM
Iran cant do anything, they are useless to the world and they're military is the laughing stock of modern warfare. Its laughable
Work on your communication skills. Uh….
Should be "uncharted waters".
God bless lran
Israel is dragging the whole world to his own crimes. What have they gained except the tears of innocent people.
Old men with beards and cloths
Remember sky news is owned Rupert murdock hard-core zionist who funds illegal settlements in occupied westbank. Sly news is mouthpiece of Israel and its not even British
