Wikileaks emails indicate Stratfor discovered Israel already destroyed Irans nuclear facilities
...............
In one of the over five million emails leaked, the conversation centered on Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak praising the news of deadly munitions blasts at a base of Irans elite Revolutionary Guards.
I think this is a diversion. The Israelis already destroyed all the Iranian nuclear infrastructure on the ground weeks ago, one intelligence official wrote in an email dated November 14, 2011. The current lets bomb Iran campaign was ordered by the EU leaders to divert the public attention from their at home financial problems. It plays also well for the US since Pakistan, Russia and N. Korea are mentioned in the report.
One other Stratfor official allegedly indicated a similar finding.
Israeli commandos in collaboration with Kurd forces destroyed few underground facilities mainly used for the Iranian defense and nuclear research projects, he wrote on November 13, 2011. Even if the Israelis have the capabilities and are ready to attack by air, sea and land, there is no need to attack the nuclear program at this point after the commandos destroyed a significant part of it.

Their sole purpose for saber rattling could be to push oil prices higher.
Of course, Iran would play along with that.

(3,450 posts)Is it okay for western countries and their allies to wage preemptive strikes/wars in the name of their self defense but not okay for other countries to do same? Why is it called aggression and terrorism when other countries do the same the thing?
If the world truly wants peace to prevail, then it has to deal the same way for all countries beginning with the western countries.

If Iran was any kind of decent nation, it would move away from our air and sea military forces!
