My Comment: Not to be outdone .... while US Presidential candidate Romney has endorsed Israeli plans to strike against Iran's nuclear facilities .... apparently the Obama administration has presented to Israel U.S. operational plans to attack Iran. It should be noted that officials have denied this story .... but National Security Adviser Tom Donilon was in Israel two weeks ago.
