Netanyahu Raises Possibility
That the US Won't Attack Iran
Indicates Israel Can't Wait

In an interview with an Israeli news outlet, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu raised the question as to whether or not President Obama might order military action against Iran's nuclear facilities. Netanyahu's comments:

"I hear those who say we should wait until the last minute. But what if the U.S. doesn't act? It's a question that must be asked," Netanyahu told Israel Hayom, in an interview marking the Jewish New Year.

The Prime Minister continued...

"I am guided not by the elections in United States but by the centrifuges in Iran. If the Iranians were to say `stop' and cease enriching uranium and preparing a bomb until the end of the elections in the United States then I could wait."

Muslim Protests Expand Globally

Protest Erupts in Australia

Muslim protests are spreading around the world. Muslims in Sydney, Australia clashed with police on Saturday. Hundreds of Egyptian police remain on duty in Cairo as protests continued there.

From Morocco to Malaysia Muslims took to the streets to protest against the United States using an anti-Muslim video (made in Hollywood) as a pretext.

A major military clash took place in the Egyptian Sinai Peninsual as Salafist's from Bedouin tribes launched a mass attack against 2 border outposts in an attempt to attack US forces operating as UN peacekeepers. A battalion of Columbian troops defending the International peacekeeping base turned back scores of Bedouins who were armed with not only automatic weapons but also missiles, grenades, and mortars.
