Same thing any other president would do: meekly condemn Israel in public while using diplomatic back channels to say "thanks for doing what we didn't have the stones to do."

well I think Dover is likely right altho being namby-pamby is sucky .. What happens after Iran relitates will be far more telling .. We shouldnt "save" Israel they started this mess let them deal with the results .. America should NOT get involved ..

IOW If Israel is stupid enough to start a war then let them deal with thier blood bath

He won't do anything. Why should he? Not our business. And I doubt if they will "take out" Iran's nuclear program. They might try but to take it out would probably require an invasion which Israel does not have the men or capability of doing. Iran knows what happened to Iraq which is why they put their program deep underground in many places. Maybe Israel can delay it at best but they probably won't be able to destory it. One thing that they can do is to take out Iran's only oil refinery and then, if everybody else embargos gasoline to them, the hurt might be enough to make them say "uncle".

Iran does not have the military ability to retaliate against Israel. They can however cause lots of trouble for us in Iraq and Afganistan.

You have some inside info? care to share it? IF it were done i doubt he would do anything. One question, how can they get there without flying over either contries controlled by us or allies with us, hmmm?
