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.

I just find it hard to believe that a U.S. Army ADA officer would not swallow hard before attacking an IDF aircraft. Likewise, a U.S. pilot ordered to do the same thing. Obama may be pushing military deference to civilian authority to the limit.
Where’s Mossad when you need them?

Report: Obama Threatened to Shoot Down IAF Iran Strike
Kuwaiti paper claims unnamed Israeli minister with good ties with the US administration ‘revealed the attack plan to John Kerry.’

The Bethlehem-based news agency Ma’an has cited a Kuwaiti newspaper report Saturday, that US President Barack Obama thwarted an Israeli military attack against Iran’s nuclear facilities in 2014 by threatening to shoot down Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.
Following Obama’s threat, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was reportedly forced to abort the planned Iran attack.
According to Al-Jarida, the Netanyahu government took the decision to strike Iran some time in 2014 soon after Israel had discovered 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.
The report claimed that an unnamed Israeli minister who has good ties with the US administration revealed the attack plan to Secretary of State John Kerry, and that Obama then threatened to shoot down the Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.
Al-Jarida quoted “well-placed” sources as saying that Netanyahu, along with Minister of Defense Moshe Yaalon, and then-Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman, had decided to carry out airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear program after consultations with top security commanders.
According to the report, “Netanyahu and his commanders agreed after four nights of deliberations to task the Israeli army’s chief of staff, Benny Gantz, to prepare a qualitative operation against Iran’s nuclear program. In addition, Netanyahu and his ministers decided to do whatever they could do to thwart a possible agreement between Iran and the White House because such an agreement is, allegedly, a threat to Israel’s security.”
The sources added that Gantz and his commanders prepared the requested plan and that Israeli fighter jets trained for several weeks in order to make sure the plans would work successfully. Israeli fighter jets reportedly even carried out experimental flights in Iran’s airspace after they managed to break through radars.
Brzezinski’s idea
Former US diplomat Zbigniew Brzezinski, who enthusiastically campaigned for Obama in 2008, called on him to shoot down Israeli planes if they attack Iran. “They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?” said the former national security advisor to formerPresident Jimmy Carter in an interview with the Daily Beast.
“We have to be serious about denying them that right,” he said. “If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a ‘Liberty’ in reverse.’”
Israel mistakenly attacked the American Liberty ship during the Six-Day War in 1967.
Brzezinski was a top candidate to become an official advisor to President Obama, but he was downgraded after Republican and pro-Israel Democratic charges during the campaign that Brzezinski’s anti-Israel attitude would damage Obama at the polls.
Every son of a bitch that voted for Obama, both times, figuratively took a shovel in their hands and begin digging their own graves. Unfortunately, their action affected those who did not vote for the bastard.
The snag with this modern-day Purim rerun, is that Haman has usurped Achashverosh's throne. Barak "Haman" Obama's plot against the Jewish people must necessarily be exposed and thwarted by the hand of Hashem.
Perhaps this is the chapter where God is mentioned in the story.
I understand where you are coming from. I have yet to be convinced that he will leave the White House when his term expires.
Such a threat would not come in an official way. It would be in the diplomatic code that all governments use, such as
Ah, Carter. Another Jew-hating SOB.
“Democrats War on Israel” continues...
And who supports the RATs? Answer: American Secular Progressive Jews. When you look at the Obola Administration, the SP Jews are right behind the Communist Blacks when it comes to it’s staffing. Just look at the IRS. It’s current commissioner (Koskinen) is protecting Lois Learner’s criminal acts. Three guesses as to which group these two people belong. It is a sad commentary on American Jews that they continue, in large majorities, to support U.S. governments whose policies are diametrically opposed to the legitimate interests of Israel.
How would Obama know about Israeli plans? Did Netanyahu run it by Obama?
Next time he won’t.
We’re all scared to death. Of course he will announce it as “peace in our time” but he’s made it perfectly clear what he’s really doing to us.
“They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?” said the former national security advisor to former President Jimmy Carter in an interview with the Daily Beast.”
Well Zebig, Iraq isn’t “our airspace” any longer you crap weasel! Go to Hell, and take that worthless daughter Mika with you!
Sneaking a 100kt nuclear warhead into the D.C. Area as "insurance".
My contention is that not one American voted for the son of a bitch and those that voted for him knew what they were voting for and got what they voted for. I do not believe that anyone, no matter if they voted for or against him, were deceived.
I found it hard to believe that the voters would put an American hating muslim in the White House. But here we are. We live in strange times. What once was wrong is now right. What was once up is now down. What was once white is now black, what was once black is now white.
Obola: "Bibi, if you fly over the Persian Gulf or over Iraq, I'll shot your planes down. Praise Allah!"
Bibi: "That's okay. We will just use our Jericho III MRBMs with MIRV'd nuclear warheads, and follow up with our nuclear cruise missiles on our subs, which, by the way have your carrier(s) a few hundred yards away from them right as this very moment"!
Check out the Drudge Report!
I don’t think resignation would be at the top of their list. I believe that most in combat command positions would refuse the order as illegal and a declaration of war without Constitutional approval.
Going lower in the ranks, I don’t think the commanders have any allegiance to the Kenyan that would allow this to happen.
