There Is No Limit To Their Gall
Attaturk had a Jerusalem Post article in which Amir Peretz, a former Isreali defense minister, talks about why the the US should attack Iran, instead of Israel.
Basically they believe that Israel is less likely to be attacked at home if the US commits the crime, than if Israel does it. It is the Israelis who have been banging on the war drums, but they don’t want to pay the price of making the actual attack.
I’m still waiting for someone to justify the ‘special relationship’ of the US and Israel. For some odd reason, I don’t think that the campaign contributions of a few wealthy people should govern US foreign policy. I think that US foreign policy should be based on what is good for US interests, not the Likud Party of Israel.
Just for the record – both US and Israeli intelligence have concluded that Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program. Only the MEK [a listed terrorist organization] and the Likud government claim that they do. There is no evidence of such a program, and normally reliable intelligence that all ‘nuclear weapons program related activities’ came to a screeching halt in 2003 when Ayatollah Ali Khamenei issued a fatwa declaring nuclear weapons ‘unIslamic’.
