How many years have we been hearing that a strike, either by us or Israel, is right around the corner? Grain. Salt. Wake me when it happens.
True but Obama has announced the removal of all US forces from Iraq by the end of the year I believe. Once that happens the balance of power in the region changes. Israel may feel they have to act before then or stand alone. I think if they are leaking a December date they would strike sooner than then.
