Israel seeks all clear for Iran air strike

Israel is negotiating with the United States for permission to fly over Iraq as part of a plan to attack Iran's nuclear facilities, The Daily Telegraph can reveal.

To conduct surgical air strikes against Iran's nuclear programme, Israeli war planes would need to fly across Iraq. But to do so the Israeli military authorities in Tel Aviv need permission from the Pentagon.

A senior Israeli defence official said negotiations were now underway between the two countries for the US-led coalition in Iraq to provide an "air corridor" in the event of the Israeli government deciding on unilateral military action to prevent Teheran developing nuclear weapons.

Let's take a trip down memory lane.

Iraq's interim government was sworn in Monday after the United States returned sovereignty to the nation two days ahead of schedule.

etc. etc. etc.

One thing Arabs seem to have in common is a hatred of Israel. No wonder we are surging troops into Baghdad. This is going to cause riots. The current Shiite government is an Iranian ally.

The democrats need to get their act together and forbid Bush to foster aggression against Iran. You don't need to be a genius to know that Iran will respond against us. It is a back door into expanding the war.
