France and the United Kingdom must help Israel hit Iranian targets should the Islamic Republic make good on its threat to directly attack the Jewish state, Foreign Minister Israel Katz told his French and British counterparts on Friday.

"If Iran attacks, Israel expects the international coalition led by the US, Britain, and France to join Israel not only in defense but also in attacking significant targets in Iran,” Katz said.

He spoke after meeting with the foreign ministers of Great Britain David Lammy and of France Stéphane Séjourné in his office in Jerusalem.

The two politicians made a lightning visit to Israel on Friday as the IDF remained braced, as it has for over two weeks, for reprisal attacks from Iran and its proxy group Hezbollah.

I’ve been concerned for a long time that Israel’s foreign policy towards neighbor states is driven by a belief that the US, the UK, and (possibly) France “have their back” such that they may make choices with less concern about the risk of war that a microstate otherwise might not choose.

Gee whiz, did they remember to ask permission of their Islamic citizenry for whom they cow to?

Nukes are a deterrent - a powerful one.

No good against enemies with knives inside the wire.

Maybe Iran is waiting for the DNC convention to attack-not that the 2 puppets would be of any help if it happened, but Obama and others would all be in Chicago.
