Sam Vaknin, author of Malignant Self-Love, responded to my post "Too Horrible to Contemplate" in which I wrote about the warning Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely issued re: the grave danger in which Israel finds itself. Following that, I included a letter from a writer who has close friends in Israel, who themselves sent an assessment and warning of what was happening behind the curtains of power.
Vaknin sent links to articles he has written, exposing more of what he says is taking place inside the corridors of power. The linked headlines will take you to the full articles which, unless otherwise noted, were written by Vaknin in 2009. I invite you to read them and draw your own conclusions.
Israel, Obama, Iran, and Journalism "During Netanyahu's visit, Israel shared intelligence with the CIA regarding the potential for a terrorist attack which will dwarf 9/11 if Iran is allowed to continue with its nuclear designs and share its outcomes with allies such as Hamas and the Hizbullah. Iranian proliferation is a direct threat to US National security.
Obama's staff is ignoring the intel (HUMINT) because they believe that it is intended to manipulate the Administration into accepting Israel's planned bombing of two facilities in Iran.
They are also ignoring intel regarding a Hamas cell in Cairo that is bent on mischief. The Israelis are shunned. The CIA is exasperated."

It is an option and the likely one because The Americans seem determined to stop an Israeli action by interposing US air power between Israel and Iran to the point of shooting down Israeli planes and occupying Israel with American or "UN" forces. That has been threatened indirectly but seriously. Netanyahu is not reliable in defense of Israel's interests. He talks a stern line when he is out of power but becomes a standard Israeli compromiser and foreign policy weakling when he is PM.
