Jersusalem Post: Israel may 'go it alone' against Iran

[im10ashus]

Israel is carefully watching the world's reaction to Iran's continued refusal to suspend uranium enrichment, with some high-level officials arguing it is now clear that when it comes to stopping Iran, Israel "may have to go it alone," The Jerusalem Post has learned.

One senior source said on Tuesday that Iran "flipped the world the bird" by not responding positively to the Western incentive plan to stop uranium enrichment. He expressed frustration that the Russians and Chinese were already saying that Iran's offer of a "new formula" and willingness to enter "serious negotiations" was an opening to keep on talking.

"The Iranians know the world will do nothing," he said. "This is similar to the world's attempts to appease Hitler in the 1930s - they are trying to feed the beast."

He said there was a need to understand that "when push comes to shove," Israel would have to be prepared to "slow down" the Iranian nuclear threat by itself.

3. I wonder what this has to do with Palestine.

This is a world issue, IMHO. But I understand the decision to move it. My bad.

2. Oh come on Israel, get with it and form a 'coalition of the willing'

so you can say you have legitimacy when you nuke Iran. :sarcasm: I feel for the average Israeli, we seem to both be ruled by idiots and fools.

4. What will they do

Nuke Iran so Iran can't have nukes.:puke: :puke:

5. Perhaps Israel can bring them democracy, peace and

security too, like we did in Iraq.

6. Not with headlines like "may 'go it alone' with Iran."

We will never know peace in the ME in our lifetime. Or many lifetime's for that matter.
