FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
“Israel indicated they’re considering this (a strike), we’ve indicated
our concerns,” he added.
The Post columnist said Mr Panetta “believes there is a strong likelihood
that Israel will strike Iran in April, May or June before Iran enters what
Israelis described as a ‘zone of immunity’ to commence building a nuclear
bomb.”
President Barack Obama and Panetta are “said to have cautioned the
Israelis that the United States opposes an attack, believing that it would
derail an increasingly successful international economic sanctions program
and other non-military efforts to stop Iran from crossing the threshold,”
he said.
“But the White House hasn’t yet decided precisely how the United States
would respond if the Israelis do attack.”
Mr Panetta said Sunday in an interview with CBS that Iran needed “about a
year” to produce enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon, and one
or two more years to “put it on a deliverable vehicle.”
Iran insists its nuclear project is peaceful and has threatened retaliation
over the fresh sanctions, including possibly disrupting shipping through the
strategic Strait of Hormuz.
Israeli media reported in October last year that the option of pre-emptive air
strikes on Iran was opposed by the country’s intelligence services but
favored by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Ehud
Barak.
Israeli television said Mossad chief Tamir Pardo raised the possibility of a
unilateral strike on Iran during a visit last week to Washington.
