Intelligence in Israel and the US claim that Iran has now enough material and expertise to build a nuclear bomb. Obama insists on an open dialogue with Iran, but Israel is thought to be pressing for stronger measures.
Dr. Walid Phares from the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies based in Washington says Israel may trigger a strike if Iran crosses some ‘red lines’.

I agree with you Stan Heitbrink. But I don't believe Israel will receive any assistance from the U.S., Britain or any other nations. But they can do the job themselves. But once Iran is attacked by Israel it will have to be a multi nation strike because of the danger of reprisal. Especially important will be to control and contain Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and saudi Arabia. Lebanon and Syria because of the close proximity to Israel whereby they could literally lob missiles over the border loaded with Iranian payloads and Jordan and saudi Arabia for the stun factor. Cut off the head and the body falls. I don;t believe that Israel will have any logistical problems dealing with Iran or any of the other nations involved because they have very advanced systems. I believe the world will be stunned at the speed of the operation. It will be like something the world has never seen. But , unfortunately very necessary. I'm actually very disappointed with the U.S. invading Iraq because they did it to interfere with Israel's part of the world, and Israel can certainly take care of themselves. But when it does happen, the U.S. would be wise to stand down.
Israel is to be admired, especially considering what has happened to the Jewish people throughout history and particularly in the past 80 years. The world has little regard for the Jewish people, much less the acceptance of a Jewish State. Many people in the United Sates have little knowledge of the history of Israel and the situation that Jews have to deal with on a day by day basis.It is very sad for me when I know the region and have a good understanding of the trials that Israel endures everyday. I know that Israel can't trust any other nation in the world. U.S. and Britain sided with the Arab States on many occasions and still couldn't defeat the Jewish people. The hand of God Himself intervened for Israel and gave them the right people to lead, to fight, to outsmart their enemies time and time again. There is a reason for this. God Promised the land for Israel I've never been to Israel, but someday I'll Go. . I believe that Israel not only has the right to defend themselves without the approval of any Nation on Earth, it is their duty and honor to defend the land that God Himself gave to them & their children. If Iran threatens Israel, You protect yourselves and the families that God has blessed you with.. All nations have a demonic hatred and jealousy of Israel,but stand strong and know that God is with you!.
I think that Iran will never initiate any step forward until some body harm them as Iran's history said.
