Read the article and on page 3 it's recounted how Israel attacked Iraq's nuclear plant in 1981 - while the USA nor any other western govt would ever consent to an attack, history showed that these govts didn't exactly go overboard to condemn Israel after it happened in 1981.

It may be sabre-rattling at the moment but Israel has a habit and history of defending itself by attacking first. Maybe it was meant as a manoeuvre to get the Iranians to comply with the UN. However, as a result of the adversaries concerned it just leaves one feeling a little more uneasy than usual.
