HH: We’ve got about a minute, Senator Lieberman. You were just in Israel. They’re running Operation Turning Point 2 right now. What’s the level of angst in Israel about Iran, and the Syrian ambitions toward it right now?JL: The level of angst in Israel about Iran is extremely high. You know, they deal with threats from Palestinian terrorists, from Hamas, from Hezbollah. Incidentally, both are supported by Iran. But the great fear is that Iran will get a nuclear weapon. And that represents a threat to the very existence of Israel. I tell you the other thing, Hugh, they’re sick and tired of those rockets coming in on the average of one every two hours, with fifteen seconds warning, into the towns and cities near Gaza, being fired by Hamas rockets, supplied by Iran. And I would not be surprised if they take some action to defend themselves pretty soon.
I'd kind of like to know more about this pending attack on Iran.
