Iran is a threat — a real threat, summed up Hagel, but
pointed out that international economic sanctions have already
become a tremendous pain for Tehran and that in turn would possibly
influence the results of the Iran's presidential election in June.
Therefore the implication of military force remains the last resort
option.
It looks like Washington is paying its way out of a possible new
slaughterhouse to evolve in the Middle East once PM Benjamin
Netanyahu convinces Israeli generals to attack Iran at their own
peril and risk.
The Israeli PM has been pressing the American authorities to
launch an offensive on Iran for quite some time now – with no
practical results. Possibly the last time Israel could rely on the
US in attacking Iran for real was in 2008, but the war launched by
Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili in South Ossetia, close to
the Iranian border, spoilt the game – if there was any.
