Despite all the anti-Iran rhetoric from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and members of his government, the Israeli public remains strongly opposed to Israel launching an attack on Tehran’s nuclear facilities.
Writing in Wednesday’s Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, Prof. Ephraim Yaar and Prof. Tamar Hermann of Tel Aviv University reveal the findings of their most recent Peace Index that show 62 per cent of Israelis are opposed to Israel launching an attack on Iran without U.S. cooperation.
It would seem that the anti-Iran hawks in the US Congress are out of touch with the Israeli people - not to mention Netanyahu!
"God is no captious sophister, eager to trip us up whenever we say amiss, but a courteous tutor, ready to amend what, in our weakness or our ignorance, we say ill, and to make the most of what we say aright." from 'A Learned Discourse on Justification', a sermon by Richard Hooker (1554-1600).

Teilhard, in the 64 years since Israel became a state, Arab factions have been threatening to blow them off the face of the earth. They haven't achieved that ambition, so that hardly comes under the definition of 'onslaught'!
