Observation #69 ...

A couple of "news" items:

1. A story in the Jerusalem Post says that Israeli air force planes have been practicing for their imminent attack on Iran's nuclear program using American air bases in Iraq.

2. The Pentagon firmly discredited the Jerusalem Post story today, declaring it bogus and without any shred of the truth.

My observation:

If I were in command of the US or Coalition air forces in Iraq and Israeli aircraft crossed the Iraqi border I would issue the order to engage them and shoot them out of the sky. We have enough problems in the Middle East and don't need more.

If the Israeli Air Force wants to bomb Iran, they do not need American help.

Two week-end Pentagon stories [rumors] have emerged. 1. The US has abandoned plans to attack Iran. If the Israelis do it, they can not use bases in Iraq to stage the attack. 2. The US will make a phased withdrawal from Iraq beginning in September. They need the troops for Afghanistan.
Although these plans are reported in the Washington Post and cited by the HuffPost, they appear to be trial balloons. If the regime so acted, they would cut the legs from the McCain campaign.

yes lets all believe what the pentagon tells us

That denial tells me that it is probably a sure thing, to be revealed to us later as a done deal. It's like a company saying the rumors of imminent layoffs aren't true when they are just biding their time to reveal that people have been laid off.

This administration scares the heck out of me.

Few comments means nobody knows what the truth is anymore.

Right. More than enough problems. Oh, and I think the Pentagon said the same thing shortly before the Israeli air force bombed the hell out of the Syrian nuclear reactor site. Yeeesh.
