Obama Officials “Absolutely” Concerned Israel Will Attack Iran, Worried They Won’t Be Notified Before Military Action Taken…
Gee, why would Israel not want to tip off the Obama admin before attacking Iran?
(Haaretz) — U.S. officials are concerned that Israel will not warn them before taking military action against Iran’s nuclear facilities, a senior U.S. military official said Friday.
The official, who asked to remain anonymous, told the CNN network that although in the past, U.S. officials thought they would receive warning from Israel if it did take military action against Iran, “now that doesn’t seem so ironclad.”
The U.S. is “absolutley” concerned that Israel is preparing an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, and this concern is increasing, CNN reported the official as saying.
The U.S. has increased its “watchfulness” of Iran and Israel over the past few weeks, U.S. Central and European Commands, which watch Iranian and Israeli developments respectively, are “increasingly vigilant” at this time, according to the official, and a second military official who also spoke with CNN.
The military official emphasized that the U.S is concerned about the risk a strike against Iran could pose for American troops in Iraq and in the Persian Gulf, according to the CNN report.

I’m concerned Israel will fall for another Obama trick and notify his group of thieves before they attack. If they do that they might as well call Dinnerjacket and give him a heads up.
The Israelis aren’t stupid.
Israel knows a ‘mole’ when they see it.
Go get ‘em Bibi! We’re with you!
God bless America, our troops, Israel and fellow humans.
Calling SCOAMF would be the same as calling the Iranian Air Defence Command
After all the bullshit, these assholes seriously think that Israel would tell them squat? About military secrets no less? Talk about fucking delusional….
Nailed it in the commentary. I saw this article elsewhere, and the first thought I had is why in the world would Isreal tell the Marxist in the WH, who will without a doubt tip off Turkey, who will tip off Iran.
and we know how much Barry just loves the Islamic Turkish PM.
I’ve thought all along that this would be the most likely thing to take Obama down. If Israel attacks Iran, Barky is in a very sticky situation.
Hey Barry…NEED TO KNOW BASIS!!
sthu Hussein. Israel is a sovereign nation and the security of its people comes first, not your fragile islamic ego.
Well, with President Arrested Development and a Joint Chiefs made up of worthless appeasers, what the heck do you think they’re going to do Mr. Nameless Official?
When our sitting Pres. has decided to diss Israel why the heck should they tell the USA their plans?
As someone else stated, Israel isn’t stupid.
I think Obama has sent Israel the message that they can no longer count on us.
They don’t owe this administration a damned thing.
He really is an embarassment.
Who’d have ever thought that the POTUS would be such an clown?
Both the Israelis and Iranians pegged Obama as a weak leader back in 2008 when Obama said he would sit down and talk with the death-to-Israel Iranians without any preconditions – to try and paint McCain as some sort of foreign policy neanderthal.
Since we no longer are going to have military in Iraq maybe an Israeli strike will be easier? Hey, maybe this is Obama’s plan? Never mind.
Go Israel!
Defend yourself against the evil death cult threats.
I turn all of my friends onto Weasel Zippers so they know that they’re not alone.
We’re not the minority…….
Israel obviously thinks King Barack Hussein’s sympathies lie with the other side. Understandable.
V. Jarrett.. unelected first woman president born in Iran doesn’t want her country attacked by the Zionists..
Notifying this administration of an attack against a mutual enemy is like notifying the foxes that the farmer is guarding the chicken coop with a shotgun.
Prayers for the Israelis. Hopefully they got a few “bunker busters” to clean out the embedded nuclear sites before Barry turned HIS back on those we still consider our friends. For the life of me, I can’t understand why the Brits have stepped forward to declare their military support if the US undertakes an attack on Iran after the shabby treatment Obama has given them. They oughta start calling him “Special Barry” . . .
“…the U.S is concerned about the risk a strike against Iran could pose for American troops in Iraq and in the Persian Gulf…”
The only thing this administration is concerned about is reelection. This situation with Israel is a subset of that, just like jobs and the economy.
This administration has done everything to alienate Israel and has caused it real damage already.
1967 borders? No preconditions.
I can pretty much guarantee they won’t get notification. Obama’s got a bedside radio tuned to Al Jazeera anyway. Or maybe CNN will call for a quote or two after the fact.
Israel knows what it’s doing. They really don’t need Obamas opinion.
When all is said and done I doubt Israel has the firepower to eliminate the Iranian nuke threat in its entirety. At best they’ll set it back a few months or so.
I’m pretty sure Israel realizes the State Dept is full of arabists and have seen the changes in Hillery too.
@vagabond
Israel has nukes. I know they won’t use them but better to be the nuker than the nukee.
Jus’ sayin’
Americans stand with Israel, but Amerika does not. There is something wrong with that picture. Could it be the Marxist regime hates Israel? No doubt.
I saw an article yesterday VT I think at Noisy about exploding a nuke way high above a country would knock out an entire electric grid. That would be a great way to go and at the same time do it to china and russia.
found it… the scenario unfortunately is not a pleasant one. http://noisyroom.net/blog/2011/11/04/emp-nightmare-how-iran-or-north-korea-could-destroy-america-with-a-single-bomb/
If Israel gives the Muslim Bro in the D.C. Hood a heads up, Iran will know before they can fuel their jets. Ihatethejews and Imam Barry are brothers from different mothers with a mutual wish for the destruction of Israel and their agenda for the MIslamazation of the Middle East and N. Africa. The closeted Muslim in Chief has succeeded in clearing the path for turning Egypt and Libya into Iran clones and when he accomplishes his “pull out” from Iraq and Afghanistan, Iran is ready to move in and secure another victory for radical Muslim terrorists.
Most of the US military has addressed EMP through hardened sites, and special facilities designs, specifically designed to stop EMP radiation.
Google airburst EMP.
Did it ever occur to you Obama that the U.S. didn’t notify Pakistan when it went after Osama bin Laden for exactly the same reasons Israel won’t notify you if or when they go after Iran’s Nuclear facilities.
Israel will never ever use nukes as an offensive weapon, and deploying them for defense will be a Sampson type option. Get a grip, Jews are NOT the muzz.
Funny, because this doesn’t worry me in the slightest, and I wish my Israeli brothers and sisters good luck and Godspeed turning Iran into a smoldering parking lot for the next millenia or so.
@Teacake:
lol, outside a few cities Iran is already in the stone age.
I’d consider it a personal favor, and probably so would the rest of the world, if Iran became a fishbowl, or the new Iranian sea.
If you’re looking for a more immediate worry, remember who controls the Suze Canal.
Imagine what happens when the Muslim Brotherhood, the PLO and al Qaeda decide who passes through their waterway.

When all is said and done I doubt Israel has the firepower to eliminate the Iranian nuke threat in its entirety. At best they’ll set it back a few months or so.
I think Israel would probably go for a decapitation of the government in Iran rather than an all out nuke facility attack. It would solve the problem if they could at the same time count on a more moderate influence filling the void. The trick would be taking out enough of them to make it feasible.
@Teacake
I think that there are more immediate concerns than Iran or N. Korea doing the EMP launch, like China.

Nothing like an in your face warning.

@Nothing up my sleeve:
There have been assassinations and that stuxnet virus. Of course we don’t know who they came from.
I’m old fashioned, hoping the one true G_d intervenes for the Jewish people as he always has. Even when they have abandoned Him.
Nothing up my sleeve –
i’m just fantasying that Israel would do something like that to the nations who basically are holding the world hostage, rather than old school nuke.

VT –
i’ve been thinking about that all week and I just have a feeling after what happened 60 years ago, and now this and how the world is not only insane but has the ability to destroy so much… G-d does not exist. Now would be the perfect time to make an appearance… I fear we are doomed. People are assholes and dangerous at that.
If I, an American citizen don’t trust Obama – and I sure as hell don’t – why should Bibi.
Seems like a long time ago that we had a real Commander-in-Chief that you could count on to do the right thing. I’m hoping the Israelis can hold off ’till 2012 and start the new year off with a bang.
If any one wants to see how this goes down, read Joel Rosenberg’s newest novel, The Tehran Initiative. As usual, the story seems ripped from the headlines. Israel will notify Imam Obama right before the actual hit. “Oh by the way Mahdi Barry, we are in the process of neutering Iran. Have a nice day!”
Get ready for $10/gal gas.
From Obama’s actions (and he is the ultimate anti-Semite), I wouldn’t be surprised if he is providing military assistance and intelligence to the Iranians.
What’s the problem? If you are content to lead from behind, you can wait for the phone call that tells you world events went on without your input.
But after all, He (may pee be upon him) is a community organizer, not a world leader. The Isrealis recogonize that.
Israel tipping off Obama before a raid on Iran would be like the the US tipping off the Paki ISI before going after Osama; very bad idea, neither can be trusted

Some might find this website helpful or interesting.
angry wombat – we don’t get gas from the middle east. well we do..about 2% from Saudi.
we get 98% from Canada and Mexico.
The problem, I think, with people is simple. Folks have been shielded from the repercussions of their stupid actions for so long that they think that they’re immune from the consequences.
The folly of shielding fools from their actions is that eventually, you fill the world with fools.
GO ISRAEL!!!!!!!!!! definitely don’t tell Obummer, our commander and thief.
It is a real shame that our career politicians betrayed our trust and brought this con artist minion of Satan into our White House. He is the great destroyer of nations and Satan loves him best.
Now is the time to pray as if your life depends on it because it does. Pray for our soldiers, and our young and helpless. Pray we have the presence of mind and the fortitude to fight for our Christian faith and send the liar-in-chief packing along with his assistants who are also minions of Satan.
right there with you Phil! I think that they should just send Obama the video of the bomb hitting with a note “hey, look what WE did today- YOUR JOB!”
How much did FDR know about PEARL HARBOR in advance?
If Israel does notify the WH they are idiots. osama obama and his whole team are in the islamo moslims pocket and any number of them would be on the hotline to Iran to warn them.
Probably best to hit the White House before Iran a la Pearl Harbor, or make your attack after inauguration day, so you don’t have a muslim sympathizer ready to attack Israel sitting on the nuclear button of the United States and at the head of NATO.
I clearly mean for them to go with the waiting option, by the way.
Obama will use OUR military resources to abort any Israeli
incursion…..banking on overwhelming support from the
Muslims and the rest of the “World Community”. We’ll
shoot down Israeli planes if it comes to that. Mark my words.
Obama has a “dream”. He is Israel’s (and our) nightmare.
In theory little, tiny, Israel could save the world.
Ezekiel 39:11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.
Our military are the passengers.
Go Israel GO, do what you have to do , I speak for myself and not thru this president
Dear Israel,
Please do the whole world a favor and nuke Mecca. Thank you.
2 Tim 3:13…But wicked men & imposters will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and leading astray others and being deceived and led astay themselves…
I thinh,Israel never attack iran, beacuse We know that, Iran is not weak.
Benjamin Netanyahu should order general Benny Gantz to do whatever it takes to destroy iranian nuclear program. He can not, and hopefully will not trust Barack Hussein Obama. Netanyahu should fulfill his mission and protect the Sate of Israel. Israel should not take the chance to get Iran to get the nuclear weapons.
