So will a strike against Iran be this year or next

With both Gulf war’s being highly beneficial to Iran, a fixed exit date in Iraq, a deadlock in Afghanistan and a bleeding US economy back home - Israel is seemingly going to left with few options other than to go after Iran on their own. Once this dark ages theocracy possesses the ability to send a nuclear war head to Tel Aviv, Israel’s future is bleak.

So is a military strike at this stage justified? Would it be effective or has this horse bolted?

Well, it was neither that year, nor last year. However, the sabre rattling continues, though I did see an interesting article in the Torygraph today:

Britain and US 'risk repeating Iraq invasion mistake with Iran'

Wonder if this will become the norm in the newspapers, or if the press will follow their anti-Iran musings they currently do?
