Israel needs to wait until we have a new president installed in office.

If they have the luxury of being able to wait. I suspect the Iranians view the next 12-15 months as their "window of opportunity" to strike while they have nothing to fear from Washington.

UK military chief visited Israel ‘secretly’ this week

British military chief Sir David Richards visited Israel this week, an army source confirmed on Wednesday, following a Hebrew media report which said he arrived in secret.

Richards was a guest of IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz, the source told The Jerusalem Post.

He arrived as “part of an annual visit” aimed at maintaining international cooperation, the source added.

The source did not give a reason for the secrecy surrounding the event, but the Walla news agency cited “elements who knew of the visit” as saying that it was of an attempt to keep relations between Israel and NATO member states on a “low profile.” Walla added that the British were keen to avoid giving the impression of having close military relations with Israel, during a time when reports of a future potential Israeli strike on Iran were rife.

Single, stealth plane, a bunker busting nuke, and a public statement of condolence for the horrible accident that occured at the Iranian nuclear site. Volunteer aid to help the cleanup.

I suppose a drone or a cruise can deliver the nuke and would be vaporized in the destruction leaving no telltale evidence of source.

It would be awful that the Iranian experiment got out of hand and blew up on its own.
