Virtually all of Israel’s current and former military leadership describe the logistics as impossible without the US physical support, including pressuring Saudi Arabia or other Gulf Arab state to allow Israeli jets to fly over airspace, even receive on the ground services.

I don’t see it.

It remains as blustery warning, not as plausible action.

The coalition does not make it more likely to achieve US consent to an attack. I don’t know Mofaz’s views on an attack.

Anyone else know?

Thanks for fixing the comments section here, Larry, others.

I would rather think that Netanyahu prefers to ensure that the Cabinet will not allow for such an action without him and Barak changing their ostensible position. But there is a puzzle what Mofaz wants to achieve. In principle, secular Jews of Israel were split and awarding ultra-Orthodox various privileges, and veto on such secular ideas like civil marriage available for people of any religion or no religion. “Secular” reforms would respond to constituencies of Likud, Kadima and Israel Beitenu, and remove rationale for “Lapidism”. So it would make sense for these parties to make a temporary coalition and go through such a program. And a student of politics would recognize that if “it would make sense”, then the chances of that happening are very, very slim.
