"Berman said Israel "could wait and see if sanctions would work, [but]"

What sanctions? Don't hold your breath.

As someone else pointed out to me, the movement of the SCUDs from Syria into Lebanon was probably done in preparation to counter or discourage an Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. Wondering how much this administration knew about the SCUDs. Did they give the wink to Syria to pass them through purposely to discourage an Israeli move against Tehran?

I don’t think they are naieve enough to believe that any effective sanctions are coming. They are getting ready to go for it without our help...likely with help from some surprising sources (like the Saudis, who loathe the thought of a Persian Shiite bomb)

Hope Risk Grows That Israel Will Go Alone To Take Out Iranian Nukes

Obama has a plan.

Back away from Israel, question their policies
Support Israel's enemies
Go soft on Iran to force Israel to act alone
Demonize Israel to the world after the operation

The article says that it will take Iran until 2015 to develop nukes. That's the consensus of those in the know. I don't buy it.

1. N. Korea needs money and Iran is willing to buy. NK will sell anything from know-how to technology to delivery systems to a working model. It's just who they are. "After all," they'd reason, "Iran's getting the nuke, anyway. We might as well sell them XYZ."

2. The IAEA is simply unreiable, and any foreign intell agency with agents on the ground are only giving a best guess.

3. The US has turned a blind eye. That's official policy, so one can't trust official pronouncements from the USA.

Israel's best COA?

a. Any opening given accidentally by the enemy should be immediately seized. Better to ask forgiveness than permission.

b. US is supposed to be out of both Iraq and Afghan by 2012 as part of Obama's re-election strategy. That would be a great time to overfly (because we're not there) and to injure the guy with the big teleprompter mouth in his re-election bid. (so that you don't have to put up with him again.)

c. Do not trust anyone, and especially don't trust the US media, to include Jewish media types from the left or the right. For some reason, they are always spineless.

Israel will eventually be forced to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities. In hindsight, they should have used the window between November 08 and January 09 to launch the attack. But they gave the new U.S. regime the chance to prove itself, which it has. The next best opportunity to neutralize the threat posed by the Iranians is this afternoon.

That’s a curious way to put it: “Risk grows that Israel will go it alone”. Who’s risk?

It is Israel’s very survival at risk. Is Onada so stupid as to think Israel will not do what it must to protect itself.

If there is any risk, it is risk to US national security because of Onada’s abandonment of Israel.

Bebe is being pushed into that position.
I have faith that Israel will NOT let themselves be attacked again. Syria better get a grip on thir actions, also.

Israel will act alone, because we have a pansy and pillow biter in the White House, pure and simple.

Gee, I hope the risk is increasing.

We are defending and protecting Afghan warlords who take 9-year old ‘dancing boys’ as sexual slaves in Afghanistan.

All the Israelis did was treat Palestinians like people instead of animals and they have had nothing but grief for it since.

Funny we don’t hear a word about Jordan’s slaughter of hundreds of Palis in the 1970’s.

It’s those eEeevil Jooooos.

Too bad that Obama sided with the muslim dictator rather than helping these poor people:

Obama is a ball-less muslim POS IMO

I’m going to laugh my ass off if Israel runs a mission in Iran in which there is no military attack against the population but rather they just take out A-jad and the Ayatollahs. Wouldn’t it be ironic if Israel sets Iran’s people free?
