Israel only blustering on Iran war: Stephen Lendman
An analyst says the Pentagon wants no part of an attack on Iran and that threats of war against Iran are because they can’t tolerate it’s independence and regional influence.
In response to Israel’s recent threats against Iran saying it is able to invade Iran on its own and the US remark from Chuck Hagel that they are willing to let Israel take control of that course of action, Iran has given Israel a harsh warning about possible preemptive war moves against Tehran saying its first mistake will be its last. Iran thinks Israel will not be so foolish as to act in line with their violent threats. Iran’s defense minister said the threats hold no value and reveal Israel’s false and aggressive nature. In regards to US officials that have threatened to attack Iran, the Iranian response is that the US should sort out its own problems and not make threatening remarks. Press TV has interviewed Stephen Lendman, writer and radio host, Chicago about this issue. The following is an approximate transcription of the interview.
