It was UNPRECEDENTED for Obama to send out Sec.of State Clinton & CIA Chief Panetta to publicly proclaim that the US had nothing to do with the Iranian scientist assassination. And then this was followed up with the cancellation of joint manuevers with Isreal. This tells me that US Leaders are PISSED at Isreal and are letting not only Iran but the World know it!
IF Isreal unilateraly attacks Iran the US may be forced to help but who can say how fast US response will be? It could take 24 hrs!

I'm sure that many of you reading this column can remember the Cuban nuclear missle crisis and the
Explosive information that was learned some time afterward which was: NUKES were inside Cuba ready to be used had the US attacked! It would have been a bloodbath disaster!
I think that a similar situation exists in Iran now! If Isreal attacks and Iran has been given NUKES (by Russia) imagine the horrific consequences of Isreal's attack! Are you listening Bibi?

Excellent column John Carr! I applaud the people who were resposible for getting the black box
info released. Now WHY were the police so uncooperative? They were protecting their own!
I still feel individual privately owned vehicles with Data Recorders are the property of the Owner
and to make an individual release them is the same as testifying agin yourself.
Before there were black boxes the cops worked things out with math and experiments and people were still convicted.without this court imposed self-incrimination!

Answer: Isreal, but why do they feel so threatened by Iran?

The Iranians have little more to lose by uneashing everything they have at hand and freeing all surrogates elsewhere. If I were an Iranian I would fire every missle, torpedo, and bullet in inventory all while knowing we are going to die anyway so why not unleash HELL!
BUT......WHY all this American dead, dying,destruction, and depletion of treasure for a little puny piss-ant country with whom we do not even have a TREATY??
What is all this WAR gaining the US? Nada, nothing! So why are we forced into it?
What does Isreal have on the US that forces us to do this?

See my comment below!

There were 2 false flag attacks(Lavon & Liberty)attempting to bring the US into previous wars and I hope they would not present another by nuking an American city if the US hesitates to help.
Blaming it on Iran of course.

"It won't be hard"????? Sr, you are badly mistaken. There will be riots in every city at every office

I hope you are right!

When it's over one of Isreal's cities will be no more........Pick One!
