Netanyahu Deploys ‘Syrian’ Iron-Dome As Israeli Minister Claims US Preparing ‘Surgical’ Strikes Against Iran

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says his nation must prepare for the threat of a chemical attack from Syria, amid concern at enemy efforts to test a post-election coalition Israel, and, as Bloomberg reports, has deployed its new Iron Dome anti-missile system near the border with its northern neighbor. Along with this concern, as many have perhaps suspected, the Israeli Defense Minister confirmed yesterday that the US has prepared plans for a ‘surgical’ military operation to delay Iran’s nuclear program.

As The Jerusalem Post reports, Ehud Barak, speaking in Davos, does not believe any military operation against Iran would devolve into a “full fledged war the size of the Iraqi war” but rather “there should be a readiness and an ability to launch a surgical operation that will delay them by a significant time frame and probably convince them that it won’t work because the world is determined to block them.”

Barak added that in the past the US has been heavy-handed but that under Barack Obama, the United States has “prepared quite sophisticated, fine, extremely fine, scalpels,” if the worse comes to the worst – even though the Israeli preference would be to end the nuclear threat diplomatically , calling for tougher sanctions (though he expressed doubt that diplomacy would lead to success).

Just another geopolitical hotspot that the world’s markets choose to ignore in deference to the one true leader – central bankers.

Darn tootin “Israel must prepare for a chemical attack from Syria” Assad has some of the same
CBRNE weapons that Iran has and will use them if cornered the way Khadafi was.
For that matter America better be preparing for the same. We have on US soil over 500 Al-Qods operatives divided into 10 cells with resources to launch large attacks against large cities and population areas, they are only waiting for the strike order. Just pick out the 10 biggest cities in USA and that is where it will happen. Now we have a time frame supplied by the Revolutionary Guard itself, “Within the next six months unless the US lifts restrictions it has placed on Iran or goes further in attacking Syria.” Can you say New and Improved form of Bubonic Plague that is genetically engineered to resist treatment ?
