Rumors Cloud Israel's Iran Clout
(Reuters) Dan Williams - With the profusion of foreign reports that their armed forces could soon attack Iran, there is genuine bemusement in Israel at some of the assumptions abroad about its capabilities. "This is speculation which is not entirely connected to reality," Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon, a former top Israeli general, said on Sunday. "It's part of the problem, an attempt to turn the discussion into one of 'Iran versus Israel' instead of 'Iran versus the West, the United States, Europe' and so on," he told Army Radio.
