With all due respect, if Israel is concerned about Iran, they are free to act.I'm sure that Israel understands that Europe never has considered...and never will consider...military action against Iran.My guess is that they also understand that this recently released "analysis" would make it almost impossible for a US President of either Party to strike Iran for the foreseeable future at least.
Given those facts one can only assume that this statement is meant to be a threat that *Israel* will strike if and when she deems it necessary.

This kind of talk is somewhat similar to talk on wall street when we have big swings. If the market drops 300 points one day because of “economic worries”, and up the next day 250 points, then they really weren’t all that worried.
The question is, if one says Iran is a threat today, then when will it be necessary to strike??

...agreed. Iran is even more aware of that. Iran is not interested in having only a few nuclear weapons, either. She's taking the route to building hundreds of them. ...same with missiles. Iran is wanting quite a bit more than enough range to hit Israel. But Iran's rhetoric has gotten western Europe on its side.
Most of us are in for several interesting surprises.
