| "Ben-Israel knows the Israel Air Force is capable of the attack, which would postpone Iran`s nuclear program by a number of years." The contrary is true. Israel is NOT capable of launching an effective attack. It doesn`t have the planes, the bombloads, the in-flight refuelling, the search and rescue back-up or the transponder codes to overfly Iraq, the ONLY viable route. This is the reason that Ben-Israel says an attack is "not imminent." What he means, of course, is that it is not on the cards AT ALL, but the delicate egos of Israelis have to be protected from such a shocking statement of the truth. "But he is also aware of the diplomatic ramifications of such an action" To say nothing of the horrific military consequences for the people of Israel. Aggression against Iran is not a game where Israel alone gets to move its pieces. |
