#1  As per TOPIX, Poll indics that many Israelis believe the anti-Iran war chatter is justa BLUFF to get the US to act.

* DAILY TIMES.PK > [Israeli President Shimon] PERES SAYS ISRAEL CAN't GO IT ALONE ON IRAN, TRUSTS OBAMA.

ARTIC > PERES = US SECDEF PANETTA = admits that at best Israel can only delay Iran from developing or acquiring NucWeaps, NOT stop or completely destroy its NucProg.

* TOPIX > IRAN IS SIMPLY NOT AFRAID OF THE UNITED STATES, SAYS FORMER ISRAELI INTELLIGENCE CHIEF.

Pesky Persians have gotta be pesky.

As per the "GREAT GAME" OF GEOPOL, aka SUBSTITUTION OF NATIONS, to paraph STAR TREK:TOS' "MR SPOCK" [Episode- A Taste of Armageddon?] > "Iff the Romulans [Iranians] are indeed an offshoot of my ancient Vulcan [Persian = Warrior] race, ... THEN WEAKNESS IS SOMETHING WE DARE NOT SHOW"!

Ditto Radical Islam.

ION REGIONAL

* FYI also from TOPIX > "WORST-CASE" SCENARIO COULD SEND US TROOPS TO SECURE SYRIA'S WEAPONS.

* SAME > EXPERTS: ASSAD END TO BRING UNPREDICTABLE DEVELOPMENTS, National + Regional + International [Geopol].

Balance of Power.

* SAME > POLITICAL EXPERT:TURKEY NEXT AFTER SYRIA.

Mama Russia at risk of losing entire ME iff Assad Regime falls, potens inducing same to belligerently use its NucWeaps Arsenals in defense of its interests.
