The Times Online reported that ISRAEL has drawn up secret plans to destroy Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities with tactical nuclear weapons.

Secret? How does some reporter for Time obtain "secret" information of this type? Or, is it possible that this reporter just assumes Israel has drawn up plans for such an attack and is just writing his speculation on it? In any event, he should be brought up on charges of espionage.

The Sunday Times journalist in question Uzi Mahnaimi, is a controversial figure, who co-authored a book with Bassam Abu Sharif, former senior adviser to Yasser Arafat and PLO press officer.

So what does Baghdad Bob think?

Frankly I hope Isreal does whatever it needs to do and makes no apology about it. America is hamstrung with liberal hand-wringers. Pres. Bush will have to show a great deal more grit than he has to date to strike Iran.

Israeli Military Leaks Iran Plans to the London Times -- UPDATE: The Reporter Who Cried Wolf?

Pajamas Media challenged the report from the Sunday (London) Times for January 7, 2007: “Two Israeli air force squadrons are training to blow up an Iranian facility [Natanz] using low-yield nuclear “bunker-busters”, according to several Israeli military sources.

The attack would be the first with nuclear weapons since 1945, when the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Israeli weapons would each have a force equivalent to one-fifteenth of the Hiroshima bomb.”

Pajamas Media wants to know why Israeli military sources would leak this information now. The Times asked that question as well: “Military analysts said the disclosure of the plans could be intended to put pressure on Tehran to halt enrichment, cajole America into action or soften up world opinion in advance of an Israeli attack.”

Meanwhile, US and allied presence is already increasing in the Persian Gulf.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry denies the report: the Prime Minister’s office has no comment.

Being that the source of the story is Bassam Abu Sharif, former PLO press officer and senior adviser to Yasser Arafat, the only thing this story says Fiction Fiction Fiction.
