| Katsav expects Iraq to attack Israel... |
| 2002-09-10 |
| Saddam Hussein will probably attack Israel in response to a U.S. strike on Iraq, in which case Israel would "for certain" retaliate, Israel's president said Tuesday. The president, Moshe Katsav, said he based his assessment on the evaluation of Israel's military chiefs. "The evaluation is that Iraq will try to attack us, and I know for certain that the state of Israel is prepared ... to confront that challenge and this time it does not intend to sit idly by with its arms folded," Katsav told Israel Army Radio. Ummm... Not sure if the U.S. will even try to hold them back this time. It was touch and go last time... Israel's chief of military intelligence, Aharon Zeevi-Farkash, told the Cabinet on Tuesday during a briefing on the U.S.-Iraq showdown that an American attack to oust the Iraqi leader is a "foregone conclusion" and is expected to take place soon, Israel Army Radio reported. Marines leave Spain yet? |
