Iran has steadily progressed towards a bomb, with threats are getting specific now from Iran.
Israel would prefer not to attack, but is very close to launching a strike to prevent Iran from launching first.
Obama has made clear he is not a friend to Israel, and has been busily showing open support for what he calls the "Arab Spring", the string of governments being toppled in the Arab world replaced with radical anti-Israel Islamic states.
A nuclear war, or a threat of one between Iran and Israel makes having Obama as president, with his weak, and erratic lack of leadership, an extra level of danger for Israel, and the USA.
