Ayoon Wa Azan (Their Response was in Self-Defense)

I will start with the correct information, most of the sources of which are American, before tackling the opinions that can be wrong or right. -The report of the National Intelligence Estimates, which combines the efforts of 16 American intelligence bodies, said in 2003 that Iran had halted its work to build a nuclear bomb. -That same report saw its issuance postponed in 2010 to study the information delivered by the International Atomic Energy Agency and others about Iran's resumption of its nuclear program for military purposes. However, the report eventually came out and reiterated what was featured in the 2003 report, since the new information was unpersuasive. -The US intelligence services and the Mossad are engaged in daily coordination to follow up on the Iranian nuclear program, and the two sides agree over the fact that Iran is not producing a nuclear bomb, regardless of what is said by the members of the Israeli government (as former Mossad Chief Meir Dagan considers that a military strike against Iran would be reckless and irresponsible). -President Barack Obama wishes to give the diplomatic efforts and the sanctions more time. -During the summit with Obama on March 5, Benjamin Netanyahu called on him to increase the sanctions. This was followed by a decision that was not given its due attention by the media, to oust Iran from the international banking system. -There are international experts and legal professionals who insist that any military strike against Iran would be in violation of international law because Iran has neither attacked the United States nor Israel, and there is no proof for an imminent attack. -The supporters of the military strike within Israel's group are saying that Iran attacked Israel via its agents or its allies, which justified a preemptive strike. The abovementioned is documented information. I will thus proceed with an opinion related to that last point. If it is referring to Hezbollah and Hamas, the pretext of the war seekers is invalid because the two factions were subjected to an Israeli attack and their response was in self-defense. Indeed, Israel was the one that entered their land, and not the other way around. When lies and falsifications are required, no one humors the war criminal Netanyahu, who is well aware of the American intelligence and Mossad information. However, he provoked the issue of Iran's nuclear program to shift the attention away from the Palestinian cause. I had stated that opinion at the time and reiterate it now after having read in Yediot Aharonot an article by Tali Ben-Ovadia who wrote: "When Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returned from Washington, his people boasted a significant achievement: Removing negotiations with the Palestinians from the American agenda. “We did it! Now only Iran is on the table…” Obama will not try to open the Palestinian file prior to the presidential elections in November. However, this does not mean that Netanyahu will settle for threats, as he now has the opportunity to address a military strike which the American president cannot deter during the electoral campaign. And since the strike will lead America to the confrontation, Israel can guarantee that the Palestinian cause will not be raised for years to come, instead of being caught off guard by Obama with a request to return to the negotiations once he earns his second and final term. For its part, Iran officially announced that any Israeli strike targeting its facilities would also be considered an American strike, and that it is capable of responding, as it was not done by Iraq in 1981 and Syria in 2007. I am reading that Israel might dispatch its aircrafts to Iran via the Saudi airspace, and I can assure that Saudi Arabia would never accept that, and even bet on it. I am also reading that it might send its aircrafts via the Syrian and Iraqi airspaces due to their inability to intercept these planes. But as usual, I tend to be suspicious, as this step might aim at creating a diversion from the course of the F-15 and F-16 aircrafts. At this level, I do not exclude the use of Georgia, even if only to host the aircrafts after the strike, considering that these aircrafts can conduct long trips, but I never read any information saying they could complete the entire trip due to its length. My final opinion - and I do apologize for the repetition - is that the Arab states must seek the acquisition of nuclear arms, so that America and Europe launch a campaign to strip the Middle East of all weapons of mass destruction, which would rid us of both Israel's and Iran's weapons.
