Israel has launched a covert war against Iran as an alternative to direct military strikes against Tehran's nuclear programme, US intelligence sources have revealed.

It is using hitmen, sabotage, front companies and double agents to disrupt the regime's illicit weapons project, the experts say.
The most dramatic element of the "decapitation" programme is the planned assassination of top figures involved in Iran's atomic operations.
Despite fears in Israel and the US that Iran is approaching the point of no return in its ability to build atom bomb, Israeli officials are aware of the change in mood in Washington since President Barack Obama took office.
They privately acknowledge the new US administration is unlikely to sanction an air attack on Iran's nuclear installations and Mr Obama's offer to extend a hand of peace to Tehran puts any direct military action beyond reach for now.
The aim is to slow down or interrupt Iran's research programme, without the gamble of a direct confrontation that could lead to a wider war.
A former CIA officer on Iran told The Daily Telegraph: "Disruption is designed to slow progress on the programme, done in such a way that they don't realise what's happening. You are never going to stop it.
"The goal is delay, delay, delay until you can come up with some other solution or approach. We certainly don't want the current Iranian government to have those weapons. It's a good policy, short of taking them out militarily, which probably carries unacceptable risks."
Reva Bhalla, a senior analyst with Stratfor, the US private intelligence company with strong government security connections, said the strategy was to take out key people.
"With co-operation from the United States, Israeli covert operations have focused both on eliminating key human assets involved in the nuclear programme and in sabotaging the Iranian nuclear supply chain," she said.
"As US-Israeli relations are bound to come under strain over the Obama administration's outreach to Iran, and as the political atmosphere grows in complexity, an intensification of Israeli covert activity against Iran is likely to result."
Mossad was rumoured to be behind the death of Ardeshire Hassanpour, a top nuclear scientist at Iran's Isfahan uranium plant, who died in mysterious circumstances from reported "gas poisoning" in 2007.
Other recent deaths of important figures in the procurement and enrichment process in Iran and Europe have been the result of Israeli "hits", intended to deprive Tehran of key technical skills at the head of the programme, according to Western intelligence analysts.
"Israel has shown no hesitation in assassinating weapons scientists for hostile regimes in the past," said a European intelligence official, speaking on condition of anonymity. They did it with Iraq and they will do it with Iran when they can."

Jewish state of counterfeit 'Israel' waging covert war against Iran - Mossad (and CIA) working to assassinate Iranian nuclear scientists
If and when Iran militarily responds to this declaration of war by the state of 'Israel', then Jewry will have the pretext to start the larger military conflict it wants.

Minister of Defense Ehud Barak cryptically threatens nuclear false flag in U.S. city to ignite war with Iran and WWIII
The goal of Satan's spawn, organized Jewry and the Jewish Zionists in the counterfeit state of "Israel", is not just the destruction of their Arab-Muslim enemies. If so, they could just nuke Iran themselves. Their aim, according to the plan of their master and father Satan, is world domination, and therefore the destruction of all opposition, the most important being the powerful white-western nations, Russia, and China. Therefore, the Jewish strategy (as laid out in the Protocols, by Albert Pike, etc) is to foment war(s) with the U.S. and the West vs. Muslims-Russia-China whereby all sides essentially destroy each other - preferably to the Jews, no doubt, in a nuclear war using the thousands of nukes in the arsenals of the U.S., Russia, and China.
Barak: Iran could attack US with nuclear bombDec 17, 2008Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned Wednesday that if Iran acquires a nuclear weapon, it could try to attack the United States.Barak said the world should press Iran to stop it from building nuclear weapons.He spoke at a conference of the Institute for National Security Studies at Tel Aviv University.He said, "If it built even a primitive nuclear weapon like the type that destroyed Hiroshima, Iran would not hesitate to load it on a ship, arm it with a detonator operated by GPS and sail it into a vital port on the east coast of North America."Indicating the possibility of a military strike, Barak said, "We are not taking any option off the table, and we recommend to the world not to take any option off the table, and we mean what we say."

War with Iran finally starting to materialize? - Biden's warning - potential for WWIII


"World War Three is to be fomented by using the differences the agentur of the Illuminati stir up between Political Zionists and the Leaders of the Moslem world. The war is to be directed in such a manner that Islam and Political Zionism will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining nations, once more divided against each other on this issue, will be forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically."-Albert Pike, 15 August 1871, in a letter addressed to Grand Master Guiseppie Mazzini (Archived in the British Museum)http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=9600
When Will It Start? Rixon Stewart – October 31, 2008 Like pieces in a chess game, strategic assets are being positioned and preparations being made. This is being done with minimal publicity but plans are now well underway for truly momentous events. None of this should come as a surprise, of course. Some time ago a trusted clairvoyant friend warned that tensions with Iran would ultimately erupt into war, one that in time would escalate into a global conflict. More recently he gave a date, which we’ve withheld until we had confirmation for what will essentially be the beginning of World War III. Well, recent weeks have provided some unsettling corroboration. A variety of indications have appeared all pointing in the same direction and although none explicitly signals war with Iran, you only have to join the dots to see that’s exactly where we are heading. One of the first signs came in mid October when top international military officials met in Adirondacks, U.S.A. This was no ordinary summit; high-ranking military commanders from France, Germany, Italy and Britain met with members of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff in an isolated forest reserve in northern New York, the location no doubt chosen to keep publicity to a minimum. Given other recent pointers it’s likely Iran was high on the agenda. They may even have discussed plans for a concerted military strike, or as this writer suspects, planned their response following an initial Israeli strike on Iran. Because another give-away signalling as much recently came from Obama’s running mate, Joe Biden. Although ostensibly from an Irish/American background, Biden is also an avowed Zionist on record as saying 'You don't have to be a Jew to be a Zionist'. Essentially he is in place to make sure Obama follows the correct game plan. If he doesn’t, a ‘lone assassin’ or suchlike will deal with Obama and Biden will then step-up and assume office. However, Biden’s obvious giveaway came on Sunday October 19, when he warned that if elected, Obama would face a testing time initially. “Mark my words,” said Biden emphatically. “It will not be six months [after his inauguration] before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy….Watch. We’re going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.” Whence this certitude? How does Biden know that Obama will face an “international crisis” a “generated crisis” if he becomes president? In two separate speeches the same day he warned of this “crisis” but more to the point: how does Biden know so precisely when it will occur? Uncannily, his timing corresponds exactly with our psychic friend’s warning. A while back he warned that conflict with Iran would begin around April 2009, which just so happens to be during the first “six months” of the new president’s term.Is this the crisis Biden refers to? That being the case, this would indeed “test the mettle” of the new president. And if conflict does erupt between Israel and Iran will he throw the U.S. military in support of Israel, in keeping with previous agreements? [...]it's likely that Israel will make the opening move: either with a false flag operation or a direct strike on at least some of Iran’s nuclear facilities. Nonetheless, Israeli military success is far from assured – Iran is well armed and prepared, some distance from Israel and intelligence on it is poor – so Israel knows its chances against Iran are limited if it acts alone. So instead of outright initial military success, Israel may well be banking on U.S. intervention when Iran retaliates, as it most assuredly will. From that point on anything can happen and what starts out as a regional clash could easily escalate into a global military conflict. Here it should be noted that our psychic friend says the conflict will start “slowly, slowly” but escalate into something much, much bigger. America and its western allies will probably all line up alongside Israel while Hezbollah, the Mahdi Army, Syria and a nuclear capable Pakistan will likely side with Iran. So too will Russia eventually and, we are reliably informed that ultimately China will also play a critical role; helping to turn what starts out as a limited regional clash into a global conflagration. All of which should underline the fact that the Obama/Biden combination is no different from McCain/Palin or for that matter Bush/Cheney. Although the personalities and presentation may be different, they all follow the same agenda regardless. And no matter what the participants in this political puppet show may say, we may soon find ourselves in a global confrontation in which hundreds of millions, maybe even billions of lives will be consumed.
