U.S. pushing Israel to stop assassinating Iranian nuclear scientists
CBS ^ | 3/1/14 | Dan Raviv

WASHINGTON -- As Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flies to Washington - due to arrive on Sunday (March 2), to prepare for talks with President Barack Obama at the White House on Monday - it's clear that there are several points of friction between Israel and the United States.

The two countries are allies, but their leaders often differ on the details of key issues: Israel's peace talks with the Palestinians, America's nuclear talks with Iran, how to approach political turmoil in Egypt, what might be done to limit Syria's horrible civil war, and a broader issue of whether the Middle East sees President Obama as a powerful, influential leader.

Recently, as I sought to update a book I co-wrote about the history of Israel's intelligence agencies, sources close to them revealed that they felt pressure from the Obama Administration - more than a hint - to stop carrying out assassinations inside Iran.

Funny how they don't say much about Hezbollah cruise missiles in Lebanon.

Well, Mr. O, someone’s gotta do it, and your gang doesn’t appear all that capable or even all that focused. Your gang spend their whole working day talking about gay rights and birth control, at the exclusion of any other breaking news events.

A few strategic assignations can be more effective that a air strike.

Not sure if that was a typo or intentional, but "assignations" is different from "assassinations".

Assassinations would be correct.

In the headlines, three militants die by U.S. drone strike in Ticonderoga region of Pakistan.

Uh...ok.

Aw 'cmon, everyone needs a hobby!

Seriously though, why? obama and his cohorts in crime certainly aren't doing anything to stop or even slow the Iranian nuclear program. Heck, Kerry's "plan" (ie. capitulation) encourages and aides it. I say, open season and good hunting.

What evidence does the world community have that Israel was behind any assassination except for a declaration by BO?

LOLZ. Will Netanyahu be able to hold a straight face on that one?

EVERYTHING obama does either:
a) Weakens America/Americans
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Serves Islam
e) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.
I have yet to have anyone raise a single substantive counter example in several years of posting this.

b, c, d, e...

Although with some presidents (JFK, WJC) both spellings can be effective. Maybe the Mossad can Love bomb Zero.

He would be the perfect Manchurian Candidate if he isn’t already.
Probably just incompetent, but I won’t discount anything at this point.
