The United States has completed its preparing for a military strike on Iran, the US Ambassador to Israel Daniel Shapiro said in remarks at a closed conference in Tel Aviv that have been broadcast on Israel Tv on Wednesday night.
“It would be preferable to resolve this diplomatically, and through the use of pressure, than to use military force,” Shapiro stated in comments that were recorded Tuesday and had been broadcast Wednesday. “But that does not imply that solution isn’t accessible. Not just accessible, it is prepared. The needed arranging has been accomplished to ensure that it is prepared.”
Shapiro, the Channel 2 Tv report said, was speaking at a closed forum in Tel Aviv — reportedly an Israel Bar Association occasion — and the feedback had been recorded by a newspaper reporter. The Television item noted that the envoy had apparently not intended for his remarks to be publicly aired.
The broadcast of the Shapiro feedback came a day after Israel Television reported that the Israel Air Force is soon to take part in joint military exercise routines in the US. The IAF has not skilled in the US for many years.
