Although i am pro Israel and want nothing more then peace in the region especially for Israel, this latest move by Bibi leaves us and Iran with one option if diplomacy fails. It is idiotic to think Iran will lay down if more sanctions are implemented and the only solution that Bibi is offering subliminally is an all our war against Iran. My issue is that it will be American soldiers doing the fighting and the American taxpayers funding the campaign and honestly the cost of an all out war with Iran would be monstrous.
And that's just an 'our boots vs their boots on the ground' cost analysis... we all know how efficient Iran is at funding, training and seeing through massively complex and devastating terrorist attacks... Attacking them preemptively could have backlash at home that would seriously alter the way of life in the United States. With all the saber-rattling that's been going on, it would be foolish to think they don't have a fairly serious contingency plan.
