Why would Israel or the West CONTINUOUSLY telegraph a warning it’s about to attack?
Never mind Sun Tzu, or even Bismarck, this drumbeat of ‘we’re serious, we’re coming’ is the most stupid tactic I have ever seen
IF THEY ARE REALLY INTENDING AN AIR ATTACK
IMHO: If an attack is really under serious consideration in the near future it WILL BE a very unconventional in nature.
Otherwise this is all way past irresponsible if you fly F-15’s and F-16’s for the IAF.
The Brits are doing NO ONE a favor with this crap. If Israel is desperate enough to attack Iran, SHUT UP because making it more difficult as a result of foreign warning, will not be the SLIGHTEST deterrent
Today’s idiotic schpiel, from the Daily Mail:
Senior Foreign Office figure: ‘We’re expecting something as early as Christmas, or very early in the new year’
Israel will launch military action to prevent Iran developing a nuclear weapon as soon as Christmas, intelligence chiefs have warned.A report by a UN watchdog into Iran’s nuclear ambitions ‘completely discredits’ the Islamic nation’s protestations of innocence, according to Foreign Secretary William Hague.
The International Atomic Energy Agency found that Iran is developing a nuclear test facility, nuclear detonators and computer modelling for a nuclear warhead that would fit on an existing missile.
Sources say the understanding at the top of the British Government is that Israel will attempt to strike against the nuclear sites ‘sooner rather than later’ – with logistical support from the U.S.
A senior Foreign Office figure has revealed that ministers have been told to expect Israeli military action, adding: ‘We’re expecting something as early as Christmas, or very early in the new year.’
