Dear Friends,

The Times of Israel reported this week regarding the coming visit of President Obama to Israel in March 2013. The Times of Israel with the assistance of Associated Press said that: “When he visits Israel next month, US President Barack Obama will tell Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that a ‘window of opportunity’ for a military strike on Iran will open in June, according to an Israeli TV report Monday evening.” They also said that: “Obama will come bearing the message that if diplomatic efforts and sanctions don’t bear fruit, Israel should ‘sit tight’ and let Washington take the stage, even if that means remaining on the sidelines during a US military operation, Channel 10 reported.” Netanyahu will be asked to refrain from any military action and keep a low profile, avoiding even the mention of a strike, the report said, citing unnamed officials.

In London on Monday, US Secretary of State John Kerry said an Iran with nuclear weapons was “simply unacceptable” and warned the time limit for a diplomatic solution was running out.” He is reported as saying: “As we have repeatedly made clear, the window for a diplomatic solution simply cannot remain open forever.” “But it is open today. It is open now and there is still time, but there is only time if Iran makes the decision to come to the table and to negotiate in good faith.  We are prepared to negotiate in good faith, in mutual respect, in an effort to avoid whatever terrible consequences could follow failure, and so the choice really is in the hands of the Iranians. And we hope they will make the right choice,” Kerry added. This was his first tour as Secretary of State and was an obvious tool of pressure to get Iran to the negotiating table. This was because a fresh round of high-level diplomatic talks was set to begin Tuesday in Kazakhstan.  These were the first since last June’s meeting in Moscow failed to convince Iran to stop enriching uranium to a level close to that used for nuclear warheads.

These comments are public displays of solidarity aimed at convincing Iran and its allies in Syria and Lebanon to negotiate properly.

The three areas of concern are Iran, Syria and its biochemical weapons, and the Palestine peace agreement. Hamas has tried to deflect attention to the question of whether Obama is going to visit the Temple Mount or not. Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel is reinforcing the claim of his good relations with President Obama negating rumours to the contrary. He said they were working together on security, diplomacy and intelligence. He also warned that Iran’s nuclear weapons program continues unabated.

We warned that they would have a nuclear weapon 45 days after they installed the new centrifuges and that by June they will have a number of weapons. The public statements of this kind serve two purposes. They are an attempt to force Iran to the negotiating table but they also indicate the latest probable time for the attack on Iran. The fact that Britain has announced a joint UK, French and US strike force on Syria to consolidate the biochemical weapons there and the fact that Russia is to deploy further naval forces off the Syrian Coast is another confirmation of the build up. The failure of the US congress to solve the financial crisis will have as a consequence the failure to deploy the new carrier group to the Gulf. How much those factors influence the June date for the window of opportunity to attack Iran is anyone’s guess. What we can be sure of is that Israel will not leave its fate in the hands of an indifferent US administration. It will strike before the latest date agreed. The war may well come by June 2013.

The coming bank planned financial chaos will further destabilise world markets. Italy has not helped with its electoral result. Australia appears much more vulnerable than assumed. The NWO financial system is coming soon.
