Neither do I, nor did I make that claim. I'm sure they'd be apprised of everything.
Why not just tell Israel to go for it since we are a little busy in Iraq and Afghanistan?
Reading comprehension not a strong suit of yours? To repeat, an operation against the Iranian nuke facilities would exclusively involve the Air Force and Navy, two branches that aren't currently involved in the nation building efforts in those two nations.
Since Israel isn't helping out in Iraq or Afghanistan, what is there world class military doing? Is Israel too busy?
lol....looks like I'll have to repeat myself yet again. This time I'll just quote my the relevant part of my previous post word for word: "the U.S. is in a far better position (militarily) to deal Iran a sufficiently crippling blow. We have them surrounded on three sides -- air bases in Afghanistan and Iraq to the east and west respectively, and our huge naval presence in the Persian Gulf to the south. The IAF, by contrast, would need to fly over several (hostile) nations just to get to their targets, and their naval presence in the Gulf is comparatively weak (no carriers)."
No, you seem to be ignoring the fact that Iran has no way to launch on the U.S. No delivery systems etc.
You're assuming the only way nukes can be deployed are on ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, or aircraft. They'd either smuggle the nuke(s) through our porous borders or send it/them on a ship (encased in a lead container) to one of our harbors.
Besides, you think Iran wouldn't know what would happen if they launched a nuke missile on Miami? Come on.
You're assuming we're dealing with rational folks here (like our Cold War enemies the Soviets), not religious fanatics. Mutually Assured destruction only work if the nations in question are run by sane people.
Fact is, you've already said an attack on Iran would make Israel safer,
I also said (about three times now) than it would make the U.S. safer, and than we're in a far better position to get the job done than is Israel.
