I don't think Israel will attack the reactor because Netanyahu has calculated that Obama would use US forces to interdict any Israeli mission.

Almost. Word is that Israel’s intelligence services have concluded that airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear weapons program would be near ineffectual as it relates to halting Iran’s quest to obtain nuclear weapons...in short, that Iran’s nuclear weapons program is too far along to be halted or deterred. Additionally, as it pertains to implications and ramifications, the negatives of an Israeli airstrike far outweigh the benefits being Iran would use its proxies HAMAS and Hezbollah against Israel.

As such, I would wager that this idiot-ridden administration has and is simply going to allow Iran to become a nuclear fact, and that it is, and has been, attempting to cow-tie Israel into doing likewise (i.e.: by trying to convince Israel that it can play the MAD nuclear deterrence game with Iran). Total failure there. =.=

The Israeli’s are ready. How about Sunday morning after the Sabbath. I was thinking tonight, but I don’t know.

Obama has to bow to Saudi Arabia in this and Israel will not allow it. Bibi Netanyahu should not forget the words of his brother, Jonathan, who would have been loved by King David.

“In 1980 many of Netanyahu’s personal letters were published. Author Herman Wouk describes them as a “remarkable work of literature, possibly one of the great documents of our time.”[1] Many of his letters were written hurriedly under trying conditions in the field, but according to a review in the New York Times, give a “convincing portrayal of a talented, sensitive man of our times who might have excelled at many things yet chose clearsightedly to devote himself to the practice and mastery of the art of war, not because he liked to kill or wanted to, but because he knew that, as always in human history, good is no match for evil without the power to physically defend itself.”[2]
