In a press conference from Moscow, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman announced Israel does not have plans to launch a military attack against Iran.
Speaking to the media, the senior minister explained, “We do not have to launch an attack. Israel is strong and can defend herself”.
Meeting with leaders in Russia, the foreign minister did not play down the urgency surrounding the responsibility of the international community to halt Iran’s nuclear program, but his statement by all accounts represent a softening of his position, deemed a hard-liner and possibly a supporter of military action against Tehran.
Israel continues to disagree with American intelligence reports, warning the Iranian nuclear point of no return is significantly closer than American experts predict, calling for an increase of international sanctions towards pressuring Iran to halt nuclear enrichment operations.

Let us hope Lieberman is only saying that so he can deceive our enemies.
Ipersonally think that what he said is a brilliant idea let israel tell the world you know what we are not intrested in iran let them do what they like but if they try anything we will abliterate them you will see then how the world will react because deep down they all wish israel will do something but they want to be able to enjoy the result but condemn israel afterwards
