I expected Israel might take out Iran before the election. Good they are prepared if need be imo.

Just hope Israel does it with great precision if they do so.

These paragraphs highlighted a point ------Bahrain being the home for our American Fifth Fleet.

"Why would there be concern among Arab countries of an Iranian counter-attack to include them should Israel attack Iran? There are a number of reasons.

Members of the Gulf Cooperation Council, or GCC, are concerned over recent Iranian statements that one of its members, Bahrain, is considered an Iranian province. In addition to Bahrain, GCC members are Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. Bahrain also is home to the U.S. Naval Forces Central Command and the U.S. Fifth Fleet."

Not clear to me what Obama supports-----Defense and Offense of this nation has a mind of its own-----may not matter what Obama himself thinks or does.
