Israeli officials are, as is so often the case these days, furious at the US for what they say is an attempt to undermine their push for a war against Iran, with a number of officials taking shots at Gen. Martin Dempsey for yesterday saying he did not want the US “complicit” in such an attack.
The term “complicit” enraged a number of officials, who say that the word has “criminal connotations,” while Vice Premier Moshe Ya’alon bashed the US, accusing them of “undermining” the repeated Israeli threats to attack.
Ya’alon said he believed the US comments, which on occasion are less than enthusiastic endorsement for the attack on Iran, are “in part responsible” for Iran believing Israel’s threats are not credible, and also condemned UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for visiting Iran to attend the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit in Tehran.
Israeli analysts predicted Dempsey’s comments might encourage Israel to attack unilaterally, by convincing them that the Obama Administration is unlikely to follow through on its own repeated threats to attack Iran.
Why is it that Israel just doesn't get it? If the USA, the UN and the rest of the world do not think that the Iranian nuclear program to generate power and medical isotopes is illegitimate, how can they continue to publicly threaten bombing across sovereign borders and scold those that offer different opinions that are reasoned? Israel is quickly showing the rest of the world that their way is not the right way of internaitonal relations. That country is becoming a cancer in the Middle East.
It is, was and always will be nothing but a cancer in the Middle East…
its because Israel does very well out of being the cats paw for the US military-industrial congressional-intelligence complex.
I am thankful the US pushes back against the belligerent warhawks in the Israeli government. Israel has hundreds of nukes, Iran has NONE! Time to shut down the propaganda, we do not believe you. Your risk is minimal. The risk to the US is 0!
Yeah, the world holds its breath. Will Israel nuke Iran this week or next? Will the ensuing holocaust consume the human race? Will ridiculous religious superstition decide the fate of mankind? Will human intelligence ever conquer the God-myth?
Stay tuned for the answers to these question. Dig your nuclear shelter while you can. Kiss your children often, before they are vaporized.
Things I worry about daily,but don't have no nucular shelter like the people that would start such a war,sick people that we let controll are countrys.Iran does not want war,only wants to protect itself and it's citizens,and not end up like Iraq,Afganistan,Lybia and so many others.Iran is not makeing nucular weapons,but I would if I was threatend daily by a country like Israel with it's 200 to 400 illegal nucular weapons.
Awww, those poor Israelis. Dempsey displayed a modicum of spine and Israeli government goes ape-sh*t. Too bad so sad. For the Israelis. Ya'alon can STFU right about now, sit his warmongering ass down on the fool's stool and just sit there. Don't say a word.
You see, the entire Planet is about the business of "undermining" Israel's insane blather about Iran. Damn, if the Israelis aren't about a pretentious collective of lunatics…
We frequently hear the Religious US Right make complaints that the UN is usless and that it has never made a good decision! Israel was one of their first decisions, do we need to say more?
No one is stopping you go ahead you damn stupid SONB. If you don't want any money milked out of the American working man and women, then it is EU and US government obligation to let you do it and is all on you Israel.
Israel is immporal to do it it just don't have the balls,and if they go nucular they will be destroyed,Without America it's a lose lose situation for Israel and by international law would be illegal and America involving itself a crime and most likely WW3.
The word "complicit"reflects the pure reality:Israel pushes by lies since the beginning of 90s to a gangsteresc attack without any true reason or what in diplomacy is named casus belli.Israel wants to be punished also 120 countries which were in Tehran these days and which support Iran nuclear politics.Israel is discontent that the gendarme of the world-US-under Obama leading don't show enough that the "free world"of US,Israel,New Papua,Micronesia,Bikini don't dictate every thing for others and let those others to answer sometimes to threatens made by Israel and US with "threatens" of their readiness to self defence.
oh. please. bibi. don't. attack. iran. we are so scared. oh please. somebody hold back mad dog bibi. oh. oh. oh.
Somehow I think the Israeli are looking for a big big backlash. They are pushing their luck too much. Is this what they did in Europe in the past?
So those parasites are furious that they haven't so far suceeded in dragging Uncle Sugar into yet another war, eh?
Well how about this: The Amerikan gummit stops stealing from US taxpayers billions of our hard earned dollars to send to those parasites? How about that idea?
No more wars for this hypocrite nation called "Israel"!
Thank god there is someone with the good sense and toughness to place limits on this madness.
Those in the Israeli government and their AIPAC agents who have been lobbying for war should have been pilloried a long time ago.
With saner voices rising out of the USG, there seems like there might only be one route for the Israelis to take to get their existence ending war…a false-flag on their own people, large enough that those saner voices will not be able to withstand the shouting for mmediate retribution…kind of like that event in Sep 2001…I wonder….
go ahead israel,make my day!!!
Dempsey makes the Israeli threats more credible. Even the US thinks they are crazy criminals.
The military brass have always had to put the brakes on the psychopathic cowards running US policy from behind the curtain. They should be rounded up by the military along with the fawning pedophiles in the White House, and tried for mass murder at the Hague.
If Israel feels so badly about this they should stand up and yell no more USA Taxpayers money will be accepted till the people of the USA bow as our slaves. We created the unholy bribe system administered by AIPAC. Do you know the disgusting sexual acts our sons and daughters had to preform to get all that blackmail on your elected officials and their staffs. Our sons and Daughters give their bodies now to find out the the USA public might have a backbone.
Let Israel attack if they feel it is important. Not one more cents to wars. Israel has a huge military so let them attack.
The Israelis are like the brother in law who always chisels you for money, "just to get to the end of the month", is constantly in fights in local bars and uses his sister to work on you for favors. One day you realize life doesn't have to be like this and you tell the wife good luck with your next husband.
It will be a grand day when "Americans" say enough of this sick pariah state known as Israel. They have been nothing but trouble since day, and continue to be a drain on the United States. If they want a war with Iran they should go fight it, and get the blowback that is coming their way.
Who's undermining who ? Undermining is Israel's middle name (it's last name is US). You want to see undermining, go to one of those so-called Christian Zionist churches.
The Israelis are right although they probably don't realise the truth of it – the word "complicit" does have “criminal connotations”. This applies exactly to the behaviour of the rogue state of Israel.
Don't cheer too much, Israel is not finished using the US yet, although we are broke, we still have young soldiers that they can bleed for their cause . They have many tools (US congress) in their bag.
Take a walk already, you and your sick bunch of Nazi warmongers.
Yes, and may the Ascended Masters of the Far East, the Ascended masters of the West, and the South, and the Inner Earth, prevent a Nuclear War!
May they prevent the utter destroction fol all Living Things on Earth.
May they prevent the destruction of the Entity Earth.
We, Awakened ones, call on them to help us!
We call upon Point Zero / THE God of All LIfe, to stop another War.
NO MORE WAR!
NO WAR WITH IRAN!
Any more comments like that and Dempsey will be fired. I'm suprised he's lasted this long.
If that is the case, his royal highness should feel free to invade Iran alone. And when they're done, invade the US too. It's not as if anyone is going to stop them.
Paradoxically, they are cry babies and bullies at the same time. There is one way only to deal with bullies — you confront them.
It would not surprise me in the least if Israel launched a false-flag operation a few days before the US national election, dress it up to look like the operation was initiated by Iran, its purpose being to humiliate Obama and give sufficient force to the crazy right and elect Romney, who will make it his first issue as President to send American sons and daughters to die protecting Israeli ambitions.
You can count on it: a few days before the election a US unit in the Persian Gulf will be attacked by "Iran" – we've been there before, remember the Liberty…
What did you think the Iran used car salesman was all about. Or the motor cycle bombing that followed the same modus operandi as mossad.
Is this the US military's stance or is it more Obama's? I am always in shock when a US official doesn't kiss the feet of the Israel Lobby.
Zionland's MOSSAD is the spritual heir of Ancient radical Islam's "Old-Man-in-the-Mountain." If a customer needs somebody dead, the MOSSAD has an assassination method to innocuously accomplish it.
I will not at all be suprised if Gen. Dempsey has a terminal heart-attack, or an unfortunate auto accident, or slips in the shower and accidentally breaks his neck, or suffers from a life-ending allergy attack, etc. Furthermore, this institution of Zioncrime won't even try too hard to hide its complicity … Zioncancer wants people to know NOT to disobey its "chosen" path for them.
Zionland has a 5th column army of assassins within Amerika numbering in the thousands! Every Senator and Congressman has a perpetual three shifts of assassins working within their own offices. Should Amerika ever decide to "abandon" Zionland, the masters of AIPAC WILL take out the entire goy government of WDC, THEN their Zio-corporate media propaganda shills will blame Islam/anybodyelse and continue to rule over us all, because that's how our own religiously subverted Vichy-masters want it to remain.
Amerika even finances its own slavery to the satanhounds of Zionland. They know, that Zionland's "Sampson-Option" allows for no other liberty-alternative.

I agree most with those who predict that the way that Israel will get us to attack Iran will be to stage some sort of "false flag" incident – some sort of incident that will be designed to look like Iran attacks America. Anything to get the NASCAR yahoos on the same side as the evangelicals into some orgy of jingoism demanding that America nuke "the mullahs".
I find torture disgusting, but it sure would have saved America a lot of grief if the "dancing Israelis" recording the attack upon the Twin Towers had been held and interrogated thoroughly at Gitmo. Instead these obvious spies were whisked home to Israel and Osama bin Ladin's chauffeur and other other nobodys were water-boarded.
Maybe at some point the military will preform a coup arrest all the zionists and the zionist enablers and hang them for treason
