"...to try to change what it sees as Israel’s increasing readiness to attack Iran....."

In other words, they won't rule out attacking Iran, they just don't want Israel being ready to do it.

[Slings and Arrows]

So, are you calmed?

[Porterville]

the only reason we are pulling out of Iraq is to attack Iran; I think we are just trying to by time and Israel wants to jump the gun.

Iran’s about to get plastered. And so is NORK. Can’t have “peace” without these things occuring.

[TwoSwords]

With 15,000 soldiers, diplomats and contractors in Iraq, Iran’s neighbor, Washington is worried that an Israeli strike would place them in danger,

---

This is called leverage. Allows America to follow up on Israel’s attack to defend our troops. Allows America an out, Israel, not so much.

If Israel attacks Iran, obummer will not have a war to get his sorry ass re-elected. That is what this all about, obummer trying to get his October general hat on . Wag the dog.

[Lancey Howard]

All this sabre-rattling is theater - a prelude to the war Ubama needs so he can get reelected. Of course, after America gets involved, the spin will be that "America had no choice but to blah blah blah...so desperately tried to avoid blah blah..."

Iran. The perfect patsy, right out of central casting.

Ubama's campaign strategy for the election eleven months from now is to send America into a fresh new war. See, Americans are very reluctant to dump a somber and serious "war time President", don't you know...

[Semper Mark]

"The Obama administration is sending the head of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey to Israel this Thursday to try to change what it sees as Israel’s increasing readiness to attack Iran."

Yeah, that'll work.

[bopdowah]

This is the 3AM phone call and Obama is asleep at the switch.

[richardtavor]

obama needs to get his ass on the golf course and let the adults take care of business.

" President Barack Obama telephoned the Prime Minister last Thursday and expressed his “unshakeable” commitment to Israel’s security, but the White House declined to describe the content of the conversation."

Oh to be a fly on the wall after Bibi took that call.

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

President Barack Obama telephoned the Prime Minister last Thursday and expressed his “unshakeable” commitment to Israel’s security...

And you can take that to the bank, but considering that Dear Leader is a serial prevaricator and had broken just about every promise and pledge he's ever made....just don't try and cash that "check!"

[spokeshave]

Should send some B52’s to help out.

[Theophilus]

A Ron Paul administration would not be trying to talk Israel out of anything.

[SaraJohnson]

Everyone calm down. The black messiah and Hillary are going to take care of Israel and install peace with all the Muslims. Don’t worry about Iran. Just do what Barry tells you to do and all will be glorious.

And remember! The Muslim Brotherhood is a moderate Muslim group that partners with the black messiah to bring peace for the Joooooz! Be glad they are taking over Egypt! /s/

Go look at a map and see that it is only 96 miles from Kuwait City to Bandar Shapur (aka Bandar Khomeni)

Troops can drive there in two hours or so to support the Marines helicoptered in from the sea. They need go no further. capture and kill that city and Iran will wither

I suspect other topics besides “don’t do it” were discussed

Israel will do what it has to do to save themselves - they aren’t going to listen to Hussein, the Muslin US President.

"With 15,000 soldiers, diplomats and contractors in Iraq, Iran’s neighbor, Washington is worried that an Israeli strike would place them in danger, The Wall Street Journal reported."

That's dishonest blaming, defamation and endangerment of an ally. Iran is at fault--not Israel.br>
