BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) – A Kuwaiti newspaper reported Saturday that US President Barack Obama thwarted an Israeli military attack against Iran's nuclear facilities in 2014.

Al-Jarida newspaper quoted "well-placed" sources as saying that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had taken a decision to carry out airstrikes against Iran's nuclear program after consultations with his minister of defense Moshe Yaalon and foreign minister Avigdor Liberman in the presence of top security commanders.

The decision came, according to al-Jarida, after Israel revealed that the United States and Iran had been involved in secret talks over Iran’s nuclear program and were about to sign an agreement in that regard behind Israel's back.

My eyes literally failed to see or read that headline…..it makes no sense at all, not on a political level, nor on a cellular level. Stupifying. Never had that experience before.

Most of our rank-and-file military has great respect for the Israeli military. Would our folks have obeyed an order to fire Israelis on the way to Iran?

Our military sat on their hands and allowed SEALS to die before their eyes in Benghazi ... they were 'following orders'...

Today's military brass aren't the ethical strong people of World War II - they're hacks. Obama's men - looking for great jobs after retirement. I have no doubt they would shoot down Israeli planes...

What I want to know is this: would our military invade American cities and kill American citizens... if that's 'the order'...
