Re: IS ISRAEL GOING TO ATTACK IRAN?
Yes, they will. and although the US does not have an appetite for another war, they will be dragged in to it. They are pleading (practically begging) with Israel not to attack (hence the toughest sanctions yet), but are planning for contingency plans all the same, because they know that they will most likely find out the next noon, like the rest of us...and then pretend they were in it all together.
hence the regular visits, to find out what tel aviv is up to, in a desperate attempt to 'co-ordinate.' Tel aviv on the other hand, is not satisfied with the sanctions, she wants blood and she wants it now..(2012). as the world is drastically changing, and it seems closing in on her.
The arab spring for example, closed many neighbourly doors for israel, that opened up for Iran. That is intolerable to Israel's long terms plans of occupation and expulsion. Iran is the biggest threat in her way due to their staunch support for palestine, hamas and hizbullah, both dire obstacles in their plans.
Recently however, they know that their game is almost up, as most nations and people are seeing through their lies. The UNESO vote on palestine was one of them, an eye opener to the fact that they are more and more isolated on the world stage.
Bibi's response was classic...paranoid and very bitter. They see those 'anti semites' (anti-israel) everywhere, especially in europe. Its probably on the rise in america as well, As no matter how big an influence they have on the media (read GOP debates and side lining of Ron paul). there's only so far their lies and americas veto can get them.
Yet as palestine is planning to join more UN agencies, america's influence will ultimately decrease. simply because of an Aipac sponsored clause, that passed straight through congress like a hot curry, resulting in the evident mess.
The motion detailed that any UN organisation that recognises or accepts palestine, will have US funding pulled immediately, even if going against US interests, and without any waiver power from the president. And that is exactly what happened! Americans officials were left wondering how they were to now wield their influence!
But as palestine aspires to be recognised by more and more UN agencies, as per the law, americas funding and influence will decrease simultaneously. Result? perhaps a more independent and balanced UN? perhaps the veto powers will diminish.
But Israel is not keen on that happening any time soon and believes she has nothing to lose at the moment in terms of international support. As i said, Bbi is seeing the world closing in on him.
On the other hand however, what most analysts and indeed intelligence agencies (CIA included) are saying, is that by attacking Iran and setting the region on fire, Israel has nothing much to lose, except that is, Israel itself.
With a high proportion of citizens with foreign passports as a safety net, and a higher proportion emigrating abroad than returning, it will not take much for them to up sticks and return to their respective countries.
If so, perhaps then, Ahmadinejaad's famous prophecy has become a self fulfilling one, albeit for Israel.
