Deputy Defense Ministry Danny Danon hinted in a politico article on Sunday that Israel may resort to a strike if necessary, citing examples of earlier Israeli military actions without US approval. This was written before the US and EU lifted the array of sanctions against Iran today. Now, the possibility of Israel preemptively striking Iran is not just an editorial suggestion, it is a likely and probable fact.
Israel must stop seeking the permission of Western Powers, in particular the US, and start defending itself like the sovereign nation she is supposed to be. The US would not tolerate Cuba arming itself with nuclear weapons. Nor should Israel tolerate Iran doing the same.
In a related story, Netanyahu claims Hamas will learn a very harsh lesson very soon. This is in response to the repeated rocket attacks Hamas has allowed to come from Iranian militants within their borders.
