8. An Israeli attack on Iran is contrary to US interests - this isn't going to happen. Period.
Edited on Sun Jul-27-08 07:29 AM by leveymg
There is no such window of opportunity for Israel to act with impunity. An attack by Israel between the election and Inauguration Day would be viewed as an attempt to preempt the authority of the incoming U.S. Administration.

The President can cut off foreign aid or even designate Israel as a terrorist state, with or without Congressional approval.

Mull that over.
