I agree with your post but I do not understand why attacking forces would need or even desire a full moon? In any event I would guess that Obama is thinking about the end of September and if he needs a full moon around the 15th. He might even wait another week or two.
Much might turn on the price of gasoline at the pumps in America.
Netanyahu of course is under no moral obligation to shape his policy for the survival of his own country to aid Obama's reelection or to oppose it. But I do think that the Republicans' best way out of this box is for Israel to initiate the strike.
Thanks for your kind words.
No, those are the days of the new moons, when no moon is visible. It’s nice to have total dark when you have unmatched ability to conduct warfare without need of light.
