US National Security Advisor James Jones says Islamic Republic could respond to growing pressure over its nuclear program by stoking violence against Jewish state through Hezbollah, Hamas
Associated Press Published: 01.29.10, 23:52 / Israel News
US President Barack Obama's national security advisor is citing a heightened risk that Iran will respond to growing pressure over its nuclear program by stoking violence against Israel.
The adviser, retired Marine General James Jones, said history shows that when regimes are feeling pressure they can lash out through surrogates.
He said that in Iran's case that would mean facilitating attacks on Israel through Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. Iran helps arm Hezbollah and Hamas.
Jones also alluded to the prospect of additional international sanctions being applied to Iran as one factor in making Iran feel greater pressure. He said another factor is internal pressure — an apparent reference to street protests against the Iranian leadership over the disputed presidential election last summer.

Oh really? You think Iran may finally do what they keep saying they will do? Push the Jews into the sea?
There is a battle coming folks and the president has chosen his side. Isreal is on its own and will have to strike.

If they strike first that's ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL LAW they've broken which forbis pre-emptive strikes or even staring a war.

Where will you be if Isreal does not protect it self from people who say they will distroy them. You will duck back into the closet if Iran strike first. Isreal has the right to strike due to the continued aggression. They certainly no longer have the US government on their side with Obama in office. They will act soon.
