US warns Israel not to attack Iran By Middle East correspondent Anne Barker
Posted Fri May 15, 2009 8:34am AEST
The United States has warned Israel not to surprise it with any unannounced military attack against Iran.
President Barack Obama sent the message to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu through a senior US official visiting Israel.
According to Israel's Haaretz newspaper, the American envoy has said the US does not want to be caught off guard by such an attack and find itself facing "facts on the ground" at the last minute.
Mr Netanyahu has previously said his government would do whatever is necessary to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
The Israeli leader will be in Washington next week for talks with Mr Obama, which will also cover US demands for a two-state solution to the Israel Palestinian conflict.
Mr Obama is due to visit Israel next month.

HAHAHAHAHA....Bambi wants advance notice so that he can warn his friends....
hey obozo, YOUR DREAMING
The headline is misleading; the story seems to say that
Israel had better no suprise us, not that they had better not attack.
But we bow to the Muslims.
Fox News says CIA sent Panetta over there on a secret mission http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,520263,00.html
Hello Washington...Our planes are over Tehran... We are releasing the bombs....NOW!!!!
Actually, this is a reasonable request. It doesn’t sound like we’ve told them not to attack, but only not to surprise us at the last minute. Any response from Iran is likely to cross US controlled air space, and could also be directed at the U.S. instead of Israel.
The problem for Israel is can they still trust the U.S. with a Saudi bowing President? If 0 gives Iran a heads up, the attack could fail, or Israeli lives could be in danger.
Good luck with that, BO!
Dear Mr. O'bama:
Israel has already say we will do whatever is necessary to stop Iran.
Be on guard, 'K?
Best to Mo,
Bibi
P.S. Tell Hilary to get a new pantsuit, 'K? Tnx
I wonder what the diplomatic way of saying ‘kiss my ass’ is?
It is indeed a reasonable request to not be surprised. I agree that Obama can not be trusted and I damn sure hope that they lock Biden up somewhere as you know that buffoon can not keep a secret.
Say they won't, fake a dial down, and then do it.
Overfly Iraq and be prepared to get through, take out the nuke facilities AND the oil fields, refinery, and port.
Zero will be so screwed, everything will fall apart on him when the plan was to screw Israel by slowly strangling her by withholding defensive weapons and bunker busters till she was helpless.
Zero and American Jews would have to decide which side, no more fence sitting.
And what will the loon do if Israel attachs?
He’s already proven that he is absolutely incapable of any action requiring thought and intellect without a day ahead warning to the TOTUS.
Oh silly me, I thought the headline said US to warn Iran not to attack Israel.
“WARNS”?
We should be helping Isreal — not giving comfort to the terrorists!
