Statements about U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran unfounded
Statements about U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran are unfounded, Tadevos Charchyan, an expert on Iran, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
Information about over 40 NATO warships on approaches to Iran is false, according to him.
"Such statements are made to test Iran or to provoke tough anti-Israeli reaction. Neglecting the show, Ahmadinejad can avoid pressure. Anyway, preoccupied with Iraq, the United States will not dare to attack Iran," the expert said.
As to U.S. missile strikes on Pakistan and Afghanistan, Charchyan said, "It's the consequence of U.S. non-conservatives' anti-Iranian position. It's quite clear that any action against a Muslim state is linked to U.S.-Israel tandem. However, it will hardly bring dividends to the interested parties. I do exclude intrusion into Iran," he concluded.
Earlier, Alaska Governor and Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin told ABC News that nuclear weapons under the control of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would be "extremely dangerous to everyone on this globe." She called for a hands-off approach to Israel if it decided to strike Iranian nuclear facilities.
"We cannot second-guess the steps that Israel has to take to defend itself," she said.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert summoned Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni for an urgent consultation on Iran.
