Concerns that Israel will attack Iran in an attempt to prevent Tehran from developing nuclear weapons escalated Thursday when the Washington Post reported that Defense Secretary Leon Panetta believes there is a “strong likelihood” that Tel Aviv will launch such an offensive in April, May or June.

Just exactly what international laws and peace treaties is Iran breaking? If that were a reason for an attack, Israel should have been bombed years ago. They have a habit of violating international laws with no repercussions.

Are you serious? Why don't you take a look at what they have been doing to the Palestinians for years. Why is it ok for warmongers like Israel to have nukes but not Iran? Since when does Israel make all the rules?edit on 3-2-2012 by IamAbeliever because: (no reason given)

We can have them, you can't.. If you ever try to be a sovereign nation, you will be attacked. If you sell and trade your oil with anything but US dollars, we will attack. If you try to help your own people and it conflicts with our interests, we will attack.

sensationalist anti-american propaganda at best. If this were the case we'd be attacking a bit more countries in the middle east during bush/obama years.

I only pray the U S government will have the good judgement to sit this one out.
I know I am praying for something which will not happen, but I can still hope.

I don't believe Israel needs American military assistance.
They've been attacked by 5+ nations, twice, and "won". The thing is, Iran WILL launch missiles at the Green Zone in Iraq then US will retaliate so strong that a regional war will erupt.

Iran continues to break the laws by continuing to develop nuclear designs and doing so quite secretively and suspiciously. May I ask you what laws Israel has broken?

First it was "as soon as March" now its "as soon as April", sounds like the alliances aren't quite on board yet! I hope they don't follow suit but I am being too optomistic!
