Will Netanyahu save Obama from himself?
Interesting thought from Marty Peretz at the end of an article in which he wonders why the Obama administration is conducting a 'strategic thaw' with Syria. While the Obama administration dithers with sanctions that will not be compelling to Iran (because China and Russia won’t agree to such injunctions), Israel has launched a pilotless drone that can stay in the air without refueling for 20 hours at an altitude of more that 40,000 feet. It certainly can reach Iran. This is not an abstraction. Maybe Bibi Netanyahu will save Obama from himself.I never quite thought of it that way. But whoever conferred upon Netanyahu the leadership of the free world after his United Nations speech last October definitely seems to have gotten it right.

Nothing or no one can save Obama and those before him for doing nothing about Iran.
This was a thought provoking article however naive.
The thaw with the terror state of Syria by Obama is nothing more then an ill-gotten childish attempt to give legitimacy to an illegitimate terror entity.
On to Iran. How many such drones does Israel have and what kind of payload can they carry?
One hit can not do it. Again this is not Osirak. Furthermore, it is a well known fact to shave some years from Iran nuke program requires a prolonged attack.
So far I have read nothing about how the IAF (small in number) can maintain a prolonged attack on Iran without refueling or flying over enemy airspace while at the same time protecting the airspace of Israel.
The only way Israel can do it is with the help of US military who just yesterday stated surgical strikes can't stop Iran nuke program. (unless that comment was disinformation)
Everyone is grasping at straws when they should be grasping with the awful reality at hand. Who knows, maybe Obama will step to the plate but I doubt it. US military too busy apologizing/appeasing Afgans for killing thirty some civilians in an effort to pretend these kinds of things never happen in war time.
we can decapitate IRAN by liquidation Khamenei and A´djad. Much easier than an attack on installations, and we do the Iranians a favor
