Israeli officials told visiting USS Chief Joint of Staffs Martin Dempsey that it would give President Barack Obama no more than 12 hours notice if and when it attacks Iran, The London Times reported Sunday.

The Netanyahu government also will not coordinate with the United States an attack on the Islamic Republic, according to the report, the latest in a number of suposed scenarios concerning cooperation or lack of it between Jerusalem and Washington.

So at 12pm Saturday East Coast time O gets a call that says at 12am Sunday Jerusalem time Israel will launch rockets at Iran? (snicker)

You put (sarc) but I sure wouldn’t rule that out considering we have a Marxist in the WH who used to go by the name Barry Soetoro for many years yet lied and said he never had any aliases. Surely a kid that used that name up to the age of 10, in Indonesia, recalls that name. If he recalls Arabic and was able to recite the prayers in “perfect Arabic” (according to the NY Times) I’m sure he remembers he used the name Barry Soetoro. If he now uses Barack O then Barry Soetoro was an alias and he is a liar.

I don’t recall that story line in Rosenbergs novels but his are equally chilling in their similarity to current events. I call the docu-novels..

“I wouldn’t give him 12 minutes. Why should he? Obama is just going to give a forewarning to his Muslim friends.”

Full agreement.

If Netanyahu should have learned anything in his previous contacts with Obama, it is that he cannot be trusted in any way. If anything, Obama favors the enemies of Israel, and will act accordingly.

In a surprise attack, time is of the essence. Sad to say, but if Israel is to win, she should only “notify” the USA _after_ the attack has been initiated, so Obama cannot reveal this information in advance to Iran....

Why have things come to this?

“Up to 12 hours” should cover it. (When they tell him 3 days later.)

If they’re smart they’ll catch him golfing and give him 12-hole warning. He won’t be able to pry himself off the course to call the Mullahs.

IMO Israel should give the warning and then just wait to see if Zero alerts the Iranians. Then they will know that when the time really comes to keep Zero in the dark.

I thought of giving him notice 12 hours after the strike, but I like your idea better.

Israel could easily spring an October surprise on Zero that would sink him.

If Israel comes to the conclusion that their security is threatened by having an enemy in the white house for another 4 years they just might do it too.

Just off-hand I can think of several tricks they could pull out of the hat at the last minute that would be devastating.

Yep. Send to www.whitehouse.gov.

Yeah, send it to that flag@whitehouse.gov email address.

I'd rather, Israel give 24 hrs. for Santorum or Gingrich, than to give one min. for Obama.

"that it would give President Barack Obama no more than 12 hours notice"

Read between the lines. It states "no more than 12 hours".

To me it says "we'll let you know 1 second before we nuke the bastards". Bibi is not a stupid man. He knows barry will warn the bastards if given any more time than 1 second before.

By then, it will be too late for ANY warning.

Israel told visiting US Gen. Dempsey that Obama would get no more than 12 hours notice before an attack on Iran, the London Times reports.

"No more than"? That's all right, then. They can give him 5 seconds' notice and they'll have kept their word. Only in Obama's fantasy world would any country give notice to an enemy (and that's what Obama is) of their intent to strike a different enemy.

“No more than 12” does not equal “will give 12”.

Thanks for noticing that - words mean things so they can give him as much notice as they want. I’d tell him just as the bombs fell but before they hit. That would be nanosecond advance warning. Bet Hussein would bow to the floor and pray to Allah to save his Muslim brothers.

“no more than 12 hours notice if and when it attacks Iran”

The ‘no more than’ part is key. I’d give him 20 seconds, and then say honestly that ‘we informed the White House before hand’.

I’m afraid that if Israel gives Mr. Obama 12 hours notice, the story will be on CNN before the attack begins. Bound to leak out.

Israel is a sovereign nation and has no obligation to tell Obama that they are going to attack Iran

The Israelis will probably reprise their earlier successful raids on Iraq's Osirak facility and Syria's Dayr az Zawr facility.

It's a long way, though, from Israel to Iran and there are apparently multiple targets that will need attention. I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't a much larger scale operation — and one that will demand great boldness.

The recent successful assassinations show that the Israelis already have a good ground game going, so I have much hope that this will go well, much to the Kenyan Clown's chagrin.

Loose lips sink ships.

Anyway, I doubt they trust Bambi with any inside info after he gave Nutjob that drone and tried to force Bibi's hand into a ‘land swap’.
