Why that is is that Iran is prime real estate and stands in their way east. Just check a map. And they're also not as whack as Saudi Arabia, who for some reason, probably because they have nuclear capability, we are in bed with.
One concept; the ultimate control of the Suez Canal.

Hmm, this coming out now couldn't have anything to do with Bibi being given the floor during our negotiations. Naw. That doesn't make an iota of sense.

Straits of Hormuz?
Yeah. Pretty much. All the chokepoints to Asia. Iran being one of the biggest. Seems some people can't see something when it's staring them right in the face.
Map.

I think its more to do with them knowing Obama will be out in 2016 and chances are another warmonger Bush will be in.
They know the USA swings from weak and feeble to hyper aggressive and war mongering in a instant. There never seems to be any balance.

Disagreeing with a Jewish person, the Israeli government or its leader is hate speech now is it? Humm, I suppose your personal attack on me is not hate speech though is it? Would it be if I was Jewish??

You qualified/identified it (I made no such assumptions). You prematurely jump to your own fear based conclusions. You are the hater; self admitted.
In a separate report, Grand Ayatollah Khamenei published a February 8 statement on his website that “Iran has enriched uranium to the 20-percent level” --- after promising the United States that it would not do so.
From the Israel newspaper Yedioth Achronoth, as translated by the Washington Free Beacon:
“Iran is taking over the reins in Syria,” said Ziv … “In fact, no military decision [in Syria] is made without [the Iranianian Revolutionary Guard].” He described (Syrian President) Assad as “a puppet looking out at his lost land.”
This dangerous development may lead to a fast-spreading regional war in the Middle East. An Iranian blitzkrieg against the Golan Heights would trigger Israeli defenses in depth in Syria. Iran could potentially bring more than 100,000 Basiji into the battle, as well as IRGC troops
