WAR is Heating up in The Middle East.
(Washington, D.C., September 17, 2013) -- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is nearing a decision on an Iran strike. As he does so, he will soon come to the United States. The Israeli leader and his top national security team will meet with President Obama at the White House on September 30th. The premier will then address the U.N. General Assembly on October 1st.
Netanyahus expressed mission: To persuade the U.S. and Western powers to intensify, not ease up on, pressure on Iran to give up its pursuit of nuclear weapons and the fuel to build them.
The big question: Is Netanyahus real mission to prepare the world for war?
Admittedly, there has been talk of such a war numerous times in recent years. But few realize just how close Netanyahu was to ordering the attack.
Media reports indicate that Netanyahu and then-Defense Minister Ehud Barak were ready to order a strike on Iran in 2010, but faced stiff opposition from the head of the Mossad and other top defense and intelligence officials, and thus backed off.
COULD ISRAEL STRIKE IRAN IN SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER? Ahmadinejad calls for annihilation of Israel; Netanyahu warns U.S. time is running out to stop Iran.
Just last month, a former senior Israeli official confirmed that Netanyahu was, in fact, extremely close to ordering an attack on Iran in the fall of 2012 -- with the support of top Israeli defense and intel officials -- but was pressured not to do so by President Obama.
PUTIN HEADING TO IRAN: Vladimir Putin has accepted an Iranian invitation to visit the country and meet with newly elected President Hasan Rouhani, a spokesman for the Russian president confirmed, reports the Times of Israel. Putin has been invited to Iran, and he will certainly take advantage of this kind invitation, the Interfax news agency quoted spokesman Dmitry Peskov as saying on Friday. The dates of the visit will be agreed upon through diplomatic channels.

I wish Netanyahu well in his pursuit of accommodation by barry and the UN. I'm afraid both would side with Iran in such a conflict. There aren't many leaders like him, whose first and only interest is the survival of his country. Here, we have a "leader" whose only goal is the annihilation of our country. I truly wish Israel well.

I really don't think there is going to be any good coming out of this. War at the least and maybe the US heading the way if Berry gets his way.
