I agree - quite weird that there are suddenly so many stories. I thought that after 2010 the idea had been dropped.
Today there is this headline:

US: no comment on buzz of Israeli strike on Iran
All a bluff maybe? Hard to say.
Any attack on Iran by any country will create immediate $10 gasoline. Will that benefit the USA, or improve our deficit, or our military readiness? What it will do is put us into a major economic depression.
Time to take care of the USA. The USA military sees it as a bad idea. If Israel attacks Iran it could very easily drag the world into WW3. There is a fair amount of internal unrest in Iran that could overturn their government. An outside attack would do the same there as it would do to the USA and as it did on 9-11 and solidify opposing interests.
We’re broke and our military have faced many multiple deployments, yet McCain and Graham still want the USA to attack everyone. They both need to lead the first wave.
There was also a link on Drudge earlier about how some top Israeli intelligence guys leaked the story of a pending attack as a way to discourage it.
This story (attack on Iran) happens every few months but there is defintely been an uptick in chatter recently, alot more than usual.
