Israel’s Peres Hints at Possible Strike on Iran’s Nuclear Program

How long has Israel been condemning Iran’s program to engineer their own nuclear weapons? How long before condemnation turns into action? Well, according to the current President of the state of Israel, it all depends on whether the United States can soften “the Iranian president’s approach”. Peres went on to say that if Obama’s talks with Iran fail to halt their nuclear program, then Israel will strike. These are some very bold words spoken this Easter Sunday.
Although Peres is adamant about military action, he concluded that Israel couldn’t carry out any strike against the Islamic Republic without America’s assistance.
“We certainly cannot go it alone, without the US, and we definitely can’t go against the US. This would be unnecessary,” stressed the president.
One thing is certain, and that is Israel will not tolerate a nuclear Iran. The question is at one point do they intervene? And can they go it alone without the U.S. if the Obama Administration refuses to support such an attack?
