So, will Israel bomb Iran this month?

A group calling themselves Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity or VIPS sent a memo to President Obama warning him that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyhau is ready to go unilateral on Iran. They told Obama to be careful for Netanyahu might "blindside" the White House.
The whole of the memorandum cold be read here. I read it, and so can you. But does it bear thinking of standing up and going out in this heat and humidity just for the sake of bombing somebody somewhere? Nah...

On the other hand, who knows?
The veterans call on Obama to warn Israel firmly, immediately and publicly form attacking Iran.
No, really, people: I've looked at the weather in Washington, DC, it's even worse, at least humidity wise, than here. Don't bother him, I'll talk to Bibi myself...

Besides, "Earlier this week, Ahmadinejad said that "Zionists" have hired mercenaries to assassinate him, Agence France-Presse and the BBC reported." So let's wait and see what happens first, I suggest. One can't jump to conclusions. Or to anything else, not in this heat and humidity.

Wonder if there's any truth to Debka's report that the IDF's Romanian crash came during low-level practice for an Iran strike under-the-radar?

The specific helicopters belong to the rescue unit and aside of small arms carry medevac stuff, besides being transport helos in general and hardly able to attack anything at all. So much for Debka...
