Former US ambassador to Israel Martin Indyk said Thursday that Israel’s talk of attacking Iran was “a classic case of crying wolf” and that Washington was learning “to live with it.”

Indyk, who currently heads the the foreign policy division of the Brookings Institution think tank, told Army Radio that US officials feel there is nothing more they can do to reassure Israel that it has American support in stopping Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon.

“The US has done everything it could to reassure Israel and doesn’t have anything more in its quiver, no other arrow to shoot to reassure them. So it thinks [when it hears talk of an Israeli strike on Iran], ‘Here we go again. There’s nothing else we can do. We’ll learn to live with it.’”

 

Isaac's Looming U.S. Threat: 
Huge Storm the Size of Texas 

 

Christian News

Confidence is high that Isaac will eventually affect the U.S. possibly beginning as early as late Sunday and continuing into next week. Our hurricane threat index graphic shows that locations from the central and eastern Gulf Coast to Florida should stay vigilant and monitor the progress of Isaac very closely.

South Florida may be one of the first locations affected as early as late this weekend or early Monday, especially if Isaac moves on the right side of our projected path. Areas farther north in the Florida Peninsula would then feel impacts on Monday.

For the central and eastern Gulf Coast, if Isaac sweeps farther west into the eastern half of the Gulf of Mexico, peak impacts would arrive around the middle of next week (next Tuesday - Thursday).

It is likely there would be significant inland impacts, including flooding, and possibly strong winds as well, in parts of the Southeast beyond landfall into late next week.

"The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees. He who fritters away the early morning, its opportunity and freshness, in other pursuits than seeking God will make poor headway seeking Him the rest of the day. If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, He will be in the last place the remainder of the day." - E. M. Bounds
