Bush shut you down too. And for the exact same reason as Obama.

An Israeli attack on Iran puts UNITED STATES soldiers at a much higher risk then even the IAF pilots running the bombing missions.

We still have over 100,000 troops on one Iranian border, and more on the other Iranian border. An Israeli attack on Iran would pose a GRAVE threat to these soldiers, and to their ability to complete their current missions.

No US President is going to green-light any Israeli operation that puts so many US soldiers in grave threat, and puts our current military interests in grave threat.

Bush explained to you that you cannot attack Iran.

Now Obama has explained this to you.

So stop beating your chests and looking like war-mongers. It ain`t gonna happen.
