Israel: 'No options' out on Iran nukes |
2008-01-14 |
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told a powerful parliamentary panel on Monday that Israel rejects no options to block Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, a meeting participant said. The statement was the Israeli leader's clearest indication yet that he is willing to use military force against Iran. "Israel clearly will not reconcile itself to a nuclear Iran," the meeting participant quoted Olmert as telling the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. "All options that prevent Iran from gaining nuclear capabilities are legitimate within the context of how to grapple with this matter." Olmert addressed the panel days after discussing Iran's nuclear ambitions in face-to-face talks with President Bush in Jerusalem. The meeting participant spoke on condition of anonymity because the session was closed. |

#2 Few iff any do not believe that Iran will keep only to nuclear domestic energy - all sides are waiting to see to see iff Dubya is going to take unilater mil action before he leaves in Jan 2009, the ideal time for which is btwn now and the early Summer 2008 iff the USA can avoid Iraq-style local insurgency. |
