Israel to give US 12 hour warning before attack Iran
Maariv reports this morning that today's edition of the Sunday Times (UK) revealed that Israel advised US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin E. Dempsey during his visit this weekend that Israel will not ask for the permission of the US to attack Iran and will only give America a 12 hour warning before the attack.According to the report, Prime Minister Netanyahu doesn't trust President Obama and is concerned that Mr. Obama would do everything in his power to prevent an attack if he knew about it in advance - this out of concern that oil prices would spike during an election year. The Sunday Times further reports that an Israeli security source told the Sunday Times that Israel was shocked when it learned that the US-Israel security exercise that had been planned for two years was postponed by the U.S. Posted by: tipper 2012-01-22 |
