Israel on Iran

Fox News: Reports on a clear warning from Israel to Iran an enemy and to the USA a friend, that Israel will protect itself against a nuclear Iran, even at the cost of using force. This is in some respects a clear warning to President Obama, Israel will allow Obama to try for a diplomatic solution to the problem for a nuclear Iran but not at the cost of the security of Israel. The Government of Israel knows that US Congress will always back Israel, Blue Dog Democrats even more so when it comes to the security of Israel. One can understand why President Obama is very concerned about an Israeli hit on Iran, Iran would hit US forces in Iraq. Obama has the hot war in Afghanistan, more of a cold war in Iraq, North Korea is playing poker with the whole of Korea, the economy is still a mess, and he wants to be LBJ in the domestic field. If Israel hits Iran this could blow up any domestic agenda by Obama, lets recall the war in Vietnam finished the Great Society of LBJ. The clock is ticking for Obama, can he get his health care reform through before his polls really go South, can he get a deal with Iran over its nuclear plans before Israel just bombs the plants in Iran. Time will tell if Obama is lucky in Foreign Policy!
