Foremost Goal of Obama’s Visit to "Israel": Do Not Attack Iran
Local Editor
"Israeli" dailies reported in issues published on Monday that the true reason behind US President Barack Obama's visit to "Israel" is to stop "Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from attacking Iran.
The US President is due to visit "Israel" on March 20, according to Netanyahu, who addressed the cabinet session on Sunday.
The PM further declared the topics that will be discussed in the upcoming visit, namely the so-called Iranian threat, the so-called Syrian threat, and negotiations with Palestinians.
On this note, The Times of "Israel" daily reported, "Obama will reiterate US determination to ensure that Iran does not attain nuclear weapons, and will remind Netanyahu that the US has military ‘capacities' that "Israel" does not possess."
Earlier, the US's New Secretary of State John Kerry stated last week, "Obama decided to come himself and deliver to Netanyahu the direct message, ‘don't strike at Iran. If necessary I'll take action against them. We have capacities that you do not have."
Furthermore, the main purpose of US President Barack Obama's visit to "Israel" in the spring is to warn Netanyahu against attacking Iran, according to the Jerusalem Post.
"According to officials, the reason for the urgency of the trip is that in his speech to the United Nations in September, Netanyahu had flagged the spring of 2013 as a significant time in the context of the [so-called] Iranian nuclear threat," the daily reported.
