Netanyahu’s agenda

A second Will column from Israel, today in the Washington Post, "Netanyahu’s warning," and his second preemptive apology for Israel’s bombing of Iran. An act of necessity, he says, and you may expect it "probably within two years." NB this amazing sentence: "Any Israeli self-defense anywhere is automatically judged ‘disproportionate’".

A mark of the success of the MSM blackout on the Goldstone Report, that Will writes this pernicious nonsense in Wapo without fear of contradiction. First Jeffrey Goldberg, then Richard Cohen, now Will from Israel itself. And all of them a year or two ahead of Israel’s own schedule.  

This has the marks of an Israeli- American organized campaign; and Netanyahu is playing for keeps. To weaken Obama in the 2010 election, and convey, by signals that cannot be mistaken, that O hasn’t a prayer in 2012 unless he approves an attack by that summer.
