This is not necessarily the case. If the US and it's allies feel that there is a relatively short window to act before Iran has a nuclear weapon,
then they may well decide to take action against Iran in the form of an aerial attack
I agree that any action againt Iran would probably come in the form of precision attacks from the air. The terrain would be difficult in a grouns
invasion.
On the question as to whether Iran should be allowed to have a nuclear weapons program, most of the world, not just the US, UK and Israel, is against
that. It is not accurate to say that if some countries have them then all should be allowed.
Isnt it up to each country to decide for itself how it is going to defend againts attack? Obviously, and with good reason, Iran is worried about a
US/Israeli attack. They are pretty much surrounded, with US forces to the west, in Iraq, and north, in Afghanistan, and obviously feel that they dont
have much of a chance without a nuclear deterrent.
What the US is asking of Iran is for it to roll over and die when the attack happens.

Well looks like they are denying now.
Well in the original link, the Hamas official was speaking "on condition of anonymity" so there is really no way to tell.
Is it possible Mossad is trying to stir things up by planting misinformation in the media?
