If the US is no longer hopeful about its diplomatic means to persuade
Iran to shelve or abandon its nuclear ambition, that could make Israel
all the more trigger-happy to take out Iran’s nuclear facilities with a
military strike. The likely result? A Middle East engulfed in war.
Israel isn’t ready to accept an Iran with nuclear capability, as Obama may be. Israel’s very existence is at stake, especially
when Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, says Israel should not even exist.
