The Israel/Iran War Game; Will they (the Israelis) or won’t they? And if so, when? I know the answers, but you’re not going to like them.

Jerusalem Post
Michael Ledeen   "Because Israel is only going to do it if they think they know that time’s up.  That the Iranians have everything they need to put a nuclear warhead on a serviceable missile that can hit Israel.  Israel does not want to do it.  For as long as I can remember, the Israelis have been trying to get U.S. to do it, because they have long believed that Iran was so big that only a big country could successfully take on the mullahs in a direct confrontation.  So Israel’s Iran policy has been to convince us to do whatever the Israelis think is best.  And while they’re willing to do their part, they are very reluctant to take on the entire burden."
