IPS News journalist Gareth Porter discusses how the media got it wrong about Israel being “on the verge” of war with Iran in 2010; former Mossad chief Meir Dagan’s warnings about Benjamin Netanyahu’s reckless bluster; why Israel’s military can’t possibly go-it-alone on Iran; and the obstacles preventing a diplomatic solution with Iran during Obama’s second term.

  • Oilbamacorpz told Us that America is 57states(50+6Gulf+Superisrael) in his First CEO dronincc Term…Khalifah Aaed is telling them that Umar Quranic Empire is ON(iran_irak_AfhghPak_sham_Hijaz).

  • Oddly enough, we Have never heard from military authorities in Iran how they would react in the event of an Israeli nuclear strike on their nuclear facilities.
    Can it be that they don’t take the threat seriously because Iran has already acquired a few ready to deploy nuclear weapons from a third party – a former soviet republics or Pakistan – and that Iran would respond in kind if Israel ever uses its nuclear option against it. Iran’s “Samson Option”. Moreover, we already know that Iran did buy a handful of cruise missiles from Ukraine nearly a decade ago. These missiles are capable of carrying nuclear warheads all the way from Iran to Israel.
    One thing is very clear: Iranian leaders don’t seem at all worried about a nuclear scenario emanating from the Jewish state. We should think very seriously about why that is the case before things really get of hand.

  • If you “never heard from military authorities in Iran,”
    then you must get all your news from corporate owned
    Western mainstream media. Enough said.

    • Have you ever heard from military authorities in Iran about how they would react in the event of an Israeli nuclear strike on their nuclear facilities?

      I would very much like to know when and what if the Iranians have ever said anything about the above contingency.

  • The US is deploying missiles in Poland, Romania and on ships in the Black Sea in Bulgaria as defense against Iran. As Professor J. Edward Anderson pointed out: IRAN DOESN´T HAVE LONG-RANGE MISSILES. The Russian NATO-Ambassador said, “They think we are stupid!” But the Russians aren´t stupid. They´ll install Launch On Warning by 2017. And then it´s only a question of time. One clue: Why did they put the warheads from the cancelled MX on Minuteman-3 ? Because like the D5 on Trident-2 it´s designed to minimize Nuclear Winter effects if used against silos (Professor Paul Rogers). CND Information Officer David Guinness suggests it´s “only” for Blackmail. Aiming to achieve a disarming first strike capability is suicidal, so chief Trident missile engineer Bob Aldridge-www.plrc.org-resigned and wrote The Counterforce Syndrome, First Strike! The Pentagon´s Strategy For Nuclear War and Nuclear Empire (ch. 9 on anti-submarine warfare). GPS (NAVSTAR) WAS MADE TO GET AN ACCURACY OF LESS THAN 30 METERS, NECESSARY TO DESTROY MISSILE SILOS.
