I'm not buying the cover story at face value either. It looks like that bit of theatrics in Red October where the captain apparently scuttles the Soviet sub with the Soviet crew looking on from the deck of the US sub, cheering the captain's great deed for the Motherland.
And just in case someone lost track of the score, Ray McGovern the intelligence estimator to the stars published the score card just before Biden's visit. McGovern notes Bibi doesn't take Obama seriously and likes to kick sand in his face etc etc.
Hits in Dubai, spy flights over Hungary, tens of thousands of "bunker buster" bobmbs sent to Diego Garcia for the Israelis to request in order to hit Iran...
The whole thing looks staged in order to convince China and Russia that we really really really are getting ready to wage real honest true genuine war on Iran, honest injun! Aren't you scared Russia and China? See how nuts we really are, we're likely to really do it, you can't discount it at this point.
Nothing is off the table, except of course the possibility of telling Israel in any way that the loans, grants, credit and foreign aid might be restricted in response to violations of international law in Jerusalem.
Stay tuned next for the staged hurling of veiled public private gossip diplomatic secret insinuations between Washington and JerUSAlem over state sponshorship of September 11, 2001.
(Also, as a thought-game, what if the Dubai hit were not what it seemed, an assassination intended to point at Mossad by the US using Abbas al Fatah Palestinians for coordination? Do Israeli responses fit that bill?)
