Israel Seeks Flyover Permission Through Iraq To Iran From U.S.

   It looks like Israel is asking the U.S. for permission to form an ' Air corridor ' over Iraq just in case it becomes necessary to attack Iran's nuclear facilities. Shouldn't this kind of permission be coming from Iraq!

    Israel went into their usual state of denial over the story and said that negotiations were not happening.

Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh (Labor):

"International authorities, particularly in the West, who want to avoid direct involvement with Iran are anxious to spread the story that we will strike Iran," Sneh told Israel Radio.
"Those who do not want to work politically, diplomatically and economically are diverting attention to the operation that we are said to be conducting," he said.

"We are planning for every eventuality, and sorting out issues such as these are crucially important," said the official, speaking under condition of anonymity.
"The only way to do this is to fly through U.S.-controlled air space. If we don't sort these issues out now we could have a situation where American and Israeli war planes start shooting at each other," he said.
