Senior
Israeli officials now confirm that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu
has, "decided to attack Iran before the U.S. elections in November."
Netanyahu's agenda is much broader than knocking out Iranian
nuclear installations for his aim is to reshape the political landscape
in the USA and Israel shifting everything to the far, far right in order
to create a new comfort zone for religious fundamentalists.
Netanyahu's major backer, Sheldon Adelson, is now firmly behind
Mitt Romney, and they are known to believe that an Israeli attack on
Iran in September or October will displace Obama and many dovish
Democrats in Congress and establish a hawkish regime in Washington.
Israel has agreed to restrain any attack on Iran until after the
current round of five talks between Iran and the P5+1 that will come to
an end in either late July or August:
Military experts have long agreed that the "sweet spot" for an Israeli attack on Iran will be this coming September or October precisely because of the timing of the US presidential election cycle.
For maximum political impact and minimal diplomatic responsiveness, the time of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, NC - September 3-6 comes within this window of opportunity as well as the days immediately prior to the US election - say from Halloween till the 6th of November.
It may be instructive to recall that Israel's Operation Cast Lead
was timed to coincide with the transition between Obama and Bush and
ended abruptly immediately before the Inauguration in January 2009.
Presidential election cycles have played major roles in the design
of military timetables. For only one example, recall the Tet Offensive
in early 1968 that drove LBJ out of the race for the White House.

Hoy es el día más hermoso de nuestra vida, querido Sancho; los obstáculos más grandes, nuestras propias indecisiones; nuestro enemigo más fuerte, el miedo al poderoso y a nosotros mismos; la cosa más fácil, equivocarnos; la más destructiva, la mentira y el egoísmo; la peor derrota, el desaliento; los defectos más peligrosos, la soberbia y el rencor; las sensaciones más gratas, la buena conciencia, el esfuerzo para ser mejores sin ser perfectos, y sobretodo, la disposición para hacer el bien y combatir la injusticia dondequiera que esté.
