Part I. Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (66)

 

Chapter 25 US Military embarks on (3) Diplomacy between US and Saudi Arabia (2/3)


Saudi Arabian defense minister replied to the U.S. Secretary of Defense after two days that he would accept the three bombers to pass over. But he didn't mention anything about the flight for refueling.  Secretary of Defense tried to ask back the reason for a moment. But he said nothing. It was quite enough that Israel would bomb Natanz nuclear facilities. Once the facilities had been bombed successfully, Israel, Saudi Arabia and even the United States itself would get big fruits. The Secretary of Defense stopped the dialogue. He considered that aerial refueling was not a major issue compared with the bombing.

 

However, the Secretary of Defense did not miss that Defense Minister’s way of the talking over the telephone. It sounded a little bit strange. He suspected that Saudi Arabia might carry out an operation advised by the Chief of Staff. His presentiment proved right later. Further misery was taken place.

It was the US logic that once Iran took lead in nuclear development in the region, the entire Middle East would become unstable and Iranian nuclear weapons might be smuggled to Islamic terrorist organizations in the future.   But the U.S. vital interest was Israeli security. For the United States, Israel itself was located far from U.S. where was geographically on the opposite side of the world beyond the Atlantic Ocean. And Israel was not so much economic significance for U.S. Nevertheless, the United States supported Israel because politicians were manipulated by the pressure of the Israe...

  (Japanese Version)   (Translated from English Version to Arabic by Google Translate)   الجزء الأول. إسرائيل تقصف محطة نووية في إيران (63)   الفصل 24 الجيش الأمريكي ينطلق إلى (2) اقتل قبل أن تقتل (3/3)   ولقد تفاقمت الاضطرابات في منطقة الخليج الفارسي بسبب سياسة الاحتواء التي تنتهجها الولايات المتحدة تجاه إيران، والتي أشعلت شرارتها التطورات النووية المزعومة في إيران. وكان المنطق الأميركي يقول إن الشرق الأوسط بأكمله سوف يصبح غير مستقر بمجرد تولي إيران زمام المبادرة في مجال التطوير النووي في المنطقة، وربما يتم تهريب الأسلحة النووية الإيرانية إلى المنظمات الإرهابية الإسلامية في المستقبل.   ولكن المصلحة الحيوية للولايات المتحدة كانت أمن إسرائيل. فبالنسبة للولايات المتحدة، كانت إسرائيل ذاتها تقع بعيداً عن الولايات المتحدة حيث كانت تقع جغرافياً على الجانب الآخر من العالم وراء المحيط الأطلسي. ولم تكن إسرائيل تشكل أهمية اقتصادية كبيرة بالنسبة للولايات المتحدة. ومع ذلك، فقد دعمت الولايات المتحدة...
