Israel attacks Iran, US supports Israel, Iran gets support from other middle eastern countries that hate the US and Israel...gaaaaaaaah this has so many bad ideas being built upon each other it makes me want to scream.
It's most likely saber rattling. Israel doesn't want Iran, a country not known for it's subtle tactic, with nuclear weapons or even dirty ordnance. On the other hand, Iran knows full well that Israel has full nuclear capacity, and could, if it saw a bomb swinging it's way, remove most of Islam and there holy sights from the map along with the whole of Iran. Neither country can really do much about the other.
President Barack Obama and Panetta are "said to have cautioned the Israelis that the United States opposes an attack, believing that it would derail an increasingly successful international economic sanctions program and other non-military efforts to stop Iran from crossing the threshold," he said.
"But the White House hasn’t yet decided precisely how the United States would respond if the Israelis do attack."
Where's the part about the U.S. bombing everything in sight to cause full-scale war?
Cant just blame them though, that area of the world is filled with thousands of years of hatred, fighting, and killing. Unfortunately there isn't enough effort on any of the sides to settle down and both indoctrinate their children to repeat the cycles.
