About calling the Israeli government Jerusalem, it is like talking about American foreign policy by saying "Washington is doing X", or "Y from Washington", so I don't find that strange.
I agree with them though that is seems this administration is doing a lot to keep the Iran thing from happening despite the MSM hammering it into our brains day after day. It is something I actually applaud them for, even if it is merely to keep Obummer's chances of getting reelected up
not even the American government, Washington, recognizes Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel.
like i was trying to get across...an attack by Israel and an attack by Jerusalem are completely different. the question is...which is the world worried about.
and I don't think it was a mistake or stylistic choice on the part of the person that was quoted or by ABC news, but a deliberate use of the word signifying something different or changed from convention.
i could be wrong, being wrong isn't a major thing for me, but i felt it was noteworthy as i've never seen Jerusalem used in place of Israel in a manner which Moscow means Russia or Washington means the United States.
not trying to be alarming, just put it here for discussion.

If you ask me, I think the attack has already begun. Hope they keep this nice and clean.

Unbelievable...Israel works out a possible deal to launch strikes on Iran from Azerbaijan and the United States leaks this information?
This would be like Canada giving the Nazi's heads up about the invasion of Normandy.
What an inept President we have in the Oval Office.

i'm not sure its correct to say that Iran has never did anything...either they are doing plenty or someone else is doing plenty and making it so Iran is being blamed for it.
I saw an Iranian nuclear weapon in action back in April 2007 at the Great Lakes Naval Station. It seemed angry.
