To All Am Israel
There is no doubt that the US is best positioned to deal a heavy military blow to Iran's nuclear facilities. Most experts agree that the time is now or it will be too late!!! Those who claim that Iran “may be” a year away from acquiring a nuclear weapon are merely guessing, just as they have for many years.
The sanctions the US and some EU countries are now applying should have been applied many years ago to have done any good. Now, Iran is too far advanced to capitulate.
Instead of coercing Israel not to initiate a preemptive attack the Obama Administration should do the right thing itself! Israel can not wait indefinitely. Israel's very existence is at stake!!! The entire world would breathe a sigh of relief if the Ayatollahs were to be defanged. But according to reports the US would consider military action only after the Islamic republic begins building a bomb!!! (The Jerusalem Post, January 15, 2012)
In other recent reports the Obama Administration is in the process of preparing contingency plans in the event Iran becomes nuclear!!!
A nuclear Iran is very different from a nuclear Soviet Union. The same policy options do not apply. The Soviet leaders were not suicidal, as some commentators have observed.
As we have said previously, the joint missile defense drill (which has now been postponed indefinitely) described as the “largest ever” will not protect Israel against a nuclear Iran. It may be just a measure to assuage Israel's concern and to reassure Israel of the Obama Administration's readiness to help defend Israel against a massive missile attack!!!
Thank you Mr. Obama, but no thank you!! Israel must be able to defend itself. As Golda Meir, Israel's former Prime Minister had famously said to then President Nixon; “Mr. President,. by the time you get here, we won't be here.”
Israel must act prudently and assure the Obama Administration that our preference would definitely be a joint resolve and attack on Iran's nukes by all Western nations, especially now, as Iran is already flexing its muscle and threatens to close the Straights of Hormuz, thereby choking and attempting to destroy Western economies! Just imagine what a nuclear Iran would do!
