Knesset Members: Netanyahu and Barak Cry Over Their Split Milk
"Israel's" channel 10
After the Iranian issue hit the headlines again in the recent period after the publication of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the Knesset plenary committee discussed Wednesday a proposal of its agenda entitled "the dilemma of launching an attack on Iran."
The proposal has been submitted by the members of the Knesset, "Eitan Cabel (Labor), Zahava Gal-On (Meretz) and Zevulun Orlev (Jewish Home).
MK Cabel said that "he did not believe in the possibility of a set hidden plan. Both the Prime Minister and the Minister of Defense went public with their information and then cried over their spilt milk. They accuse us, members of the Knesset, of leaking news, but I do not know any Knesset member who has close relations with reporters in Kuwait. Gossips are at the heads of the pyramid."
Minister Michael Eitan, introduced during the session the PM's response in this regard and said, "We will make every effort to mobilize the international community (to our side). "Israel", however, must clarify that all options are on the table."
Eitan added that "at these times no one can prevent dialogue."
"People want to express their opinion. However, there is a difference between current and former officials, who received the information by virtue of their job. A man of public service who heard the news through his work must examine and revise his words via the existing means, such as the Foreign Affairs and Security committee, the governmental judicial Advisor and others. There is a way to express covertly without conflicting with the restrictions."
MK Zahava Galon of Meretz commented on the same issue as well. She touched on the words of Barak regarding the probable death toll in a war with Iran and said that "he spoke arrogantly and irresponsibly".
"A public debate is important. The public is not a flock. There are things in which the discussion is good. The last three wars were selective ones, where no public debate took place and irresponsible governments took military action, which ended at the commission of inquiry," she added.

"Israel" Not Involved in Iran's Blast
"Israel's" channel 10
Everyone is looking for conspiracies, and all of us will deem reaching Iran as an interesting fact, but he who reads the article in Times magazine realizes that some intelligence agency is behind the published information.
There is no clear evidence about the identity of who might be involved in the blast of Iran, and it seems to be coincidence or an accident. We plainly recall that 3 months ago an ammunition cartel blasted in Cyprus and the leader of the naval force was killed.
Sometimes accidents happen. Sources in "Israel" say that is an accident. However, there is no doubt that the commander killed is a great loss to Iran, as he is well-known by the "Israeli" intelligence for he has played an essential role in Iran's weaponry program and in manufacturing their land attack missiles.

Toothless Sanctions on Iran
"Israel's" channel one
Tomorrow the grand war will be ignited in Vienna; the IAEA will further discuss the special report of Iran that revealed its intentions in building a nuclear bomb.
The Iranians issued a counter report in the occasion that will refute what they call the IAEA's "fabricated" report "paragraph by paragraph"; the question is what decision will be made? There are two options:
- A firm decision will be taken, where the Security Council will impose more sanctions, but the Russians and Chinese won't approve on.
- A collective decision of all the members will be taken against Iran, but it will be a less severe one and toothless.
In conclusion, "Israel" won't show content to any of these options regarding Iran's progress in the nuclear race.

President of the National Security Council on Iran: Security Agencies are baffled
Yedioth Ahronoth
President of the National Security Council, Major General in the reserves Jacob Amidror, commented on the public debate in "Israel" about a possible attack on the Iranian nuclear facilities, by saying that "some security agencies are confused and believe that they are more knowledgeable than decision makers, and if they have a point of view, let them run for the elections, then they'll be able to take decisions."
Amidror, who delivered a speech on a school day in Tel Aviv, noted that "in this issue they crossed the red lines in "Israel", it is appropriate to re-think of the system of relations between security bodies and those elected by the people."
