Is Israel preparing to attack Iran?
ByDavid Ignatius,Published: February 2
BRUSSELS
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has a lot on his mind these days, from cutting the defense budget to managing thedrawdown of U.S. forces in Afghanistan. But his biggest worry is the growing possibility thatIsrael will attack Iranover the next few months.
Panetta believes there is a strong likelihood that Israel will strike Iran in April, May or June — before Iran enters what Israelis described as a “zone of immunity” to commence building a nuclear bomb. Very soon, the Israelis fear, the Iranians will have stored enough enriched uranium in deep underground facilities to make a weapon — and only the United States could then stop them militarily.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu doesn’t want to leave the fate of Israel dependent on American action, which would be triggered by intelligence that Iran is building a bomb, which it hasn’t done yet.
Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak may have signaled the prospect of an Israeli attack soon when he asked last month to postpone a planned U.S.-Israel military exercise that would culminate in a live-fire phase in May. Barak apologized that Israel couldn’t devote the resources to the annual exercise this spring.
President Obama and Panetta are said to have cautioned the Israelis that the United States opposes an attack, believing that it would derail an increasingly successful international economic sanctions program and other non-military efforts to stop Iran from crossing the threshold. But the White House hasn’t yet decided precisely how the United States would respond if the Israelis do attack.
The Obama administration is conducting intense discussions about what an Israeli attack would mean for the United States: whether Iran would target U.S. ships in the region or try to close the Strait of Hormuz; and what effect the conflict and a likely spike in oil prices would have on the fragile global economy.
The administration appears to favor staying out of the conflict unless Iran hits U.S. assets, which would trigger a strong U.S. response.
Iran is literally INCAPABLE of believeing that Israel would attack them without the active support of their main ally the USA.
Iran’s plan WILL INCLUDE:
- Block the Straight of Hormuz to strategically break the economies of the west via skyrocketing gas prices and lack of supply
- Obliterate Abqaiq and Ras Tanura
- Saturation missile attack possibly including WMD on Israel by Hizballah/Syria and from Iran
- IRGC commando attacks against military targets and terrorist attacks INSIDE THE USA as well as worldwide
The Iranians have signaled across FIVE presidents that only military action, and only MAYBE THAT, could stop their development of nuclear weapons which they believe is the only way to safeguard the ‘revolution’ and do God’s work in killing the Jews
Every leader of Iran since 1979 has made clear they regard the USA as the guardian of evil and that Israel is the little satan.
EVERY LEADER.
Do we imagine this is a 33 year long bluff?
What is our plan?
The administration appears to favor staying out of the conflict unless Iran hits U.S. assets, which would trigger a strong U.S. response.
US assets?
If Abqaiq and Ras Tanura are significantly damaged, gas prices will be unimaginable. Panic will hit the futures market. Is the US economy a US asset?
‘Strong’ US response?
And then what are we prepared to do?
Only the end of the entire regime of mullahs can possibly change the equation.
Mullhas, IRGC, Basij.
Unsparing decapitation campaign.
Day One.
Is this administration prepared to WIN?
What is winning?
Ending the enemy’s ability to achieve their goals.
