Israel won’t warn U.S. before strike on Iran

Posted on February 28, 2012 by The Extinction Protocol

February 28, 2012 – ISRAEL — Israeli officials say they won’t warn the U.S. if they decide to launch a pre-emptive strike against Iranian nuclear facilities, according to one U.S. intelligence official familiar with the discussions. The pronouncement, delivered in a series of private, top-level conversations, sets a tense tone ahead of meetings in the coming days at the White House and Capitol Hill. Israeli officials said that if they eventually decide a strike is necessary, they would keep the Americans in the dark to decrease the likelihood that the U.S. would be held responsible for failing to stop Israel’s potential attack. The U.S. has been working with the Israelis for months to persuade them that an attack would be only a temporary setback to Iran’s nuclear program. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak delivered the message to a series of top-level U.S. visitors to the country, including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the White House national security adviser and the director of national intelligence, and top U.S. lawmakers, all trying to close the trust gap between Israel and the U.S. over how to deal with Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Netanyahu delivered the same message to all the Americans who have traveled to Israel for talks, the U.S. official said. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive strategic negotiations. The White House did not respond to requests for comment, and the Pentagon and Office of Director of National Intelligence declined to comment, as did the Israeli Embassy. Iran claims its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, but the International Atomic Energy Agency has raised alarms that its uranium enrichment program might be a precursor to building nuclear weapons. The US has said it does not know whether the government has decided to weaponize its nuclear material and put it on a missile or other delivery device. The secret warning is likely to worry U.S. officials and begin the high level meetings with Israel and the US far apart on how to handle Iran. –Huffington Post

Israel is intent on making way for the Anti-Christ to rule over the majority of mankind. (for a while.)

It’s not really a matter of “if” they launch a strike, but of when. In my opinion this is inevitable.

So many people ignorantly believe this will pass without issue. That it is just a matter of Iran posturing, and they will eventually back off much like India and Pakistan back in 2002, or the United States and Russia during the Cuban Missile Crisis the 1962.

This unfortunately is not remotely the same. In those cases MAD kept them from unleashing the nuclear genie. With Iran however, MAD is meaningless to them. Death by nuclear annihilation is an OK option, as it simply means all Iranians will get set to heaven and rewarded with virgin brides in the afterlife. We’re talking suicide bombers with nuclear weapons in their hands!

If Israel does nothing, Iran will soon launch a nuclear attack against them. If Israel stages a preemptive attack on Iran to avoid this, then Iran will strike back and so will every other country allied with Iran. The saying “Damned if you do, damned if you don’t” very much applies here. I honestly do not see a good outcome here….at best, just delaying things.

Terri: I keep wondering when something will finally happen that will wake up those ignorant or those with their heads in the sand. We’re seeing more and more warning signs, but nothing earth shattering. Stuff that might turn a few heads monetarily, but it’s then shrugged off and people go back to their daily lives and routines as if all is normal. The way things are going however, it would seem we’re just weeks or months away from that “something”.

Honestly though, there are times where I feel like nothing is going to happen, it’s easy to fall into that frame of mind. It seems though if its not nature that is on the verge of collapse, it’s human society that is. Weird how all this seems to be happening so suddenly, and out of no where (I think it being 2012 is just a coincidence, I don’t actually believe in doomsday prophecies).

“Israeli officials say they won’t warn the U.S.” Like the US doesn’t know. Which doesn’t say much about US Intelligence. Of course, US knows. It’s a way of absolving US of responsibility. The problem is, Both China and Russia will come to Iran’s defense, and it will be WWIII, and US did nothing but invoke it, or nothing to prohibit Israel from inviting WWIII. After the dust (or radiation fallout) settled, and Billions of lives are lost, what would be the remorse from either Israel or US (what’s left of these two countries)?

Its checkmate to any kind of peace. There is no way out now. If you are religious and have a god, now is the the time to get close to the real God and start praying big time, because once the match is struck – there is no turning back! This is going to light one hell of a bonfire and all the world is going to be affected – lives lost, economicaly, people displacement and Warfare like never before.
This is going to be bigger than World War 2, and we will ALL be affected!

  It has all the makings of a nightmare. Both sides have pre-emptive policies, 200,000 missiles pointing towards Israel, 1/4 of the world’s remaining oil supplies in a radioative hot-zone, and a nuclear equation at least in the hands of Israelis- dirt-bomb potential from the Iranians from enriched uranium deployed in a RDD warhead. Any day now, we can potentially wake up to the news that a mushroom cloud is now suspended on the horizon in the Middle East. This event will change the world forever in a flash of time. Once, these weapons are used…they will become the lust of nations. It will be acquire one to prevent the same thing happening to you. We tetter on the precipice of a horrifying new age on this planet, unless this madness is halted.
