Israel and Iran Update

As all 6 long-time readers of NBfPB know, I've been predicting the Israeli bombing of Iran for many years now.

In 2009 for instance:
So, I've upped my probability to 80% that 1H 2010 sees an Israeli attack on Iran. If it happens, Obama will be seen as the guy who not only failed to unclench any fists but got a couple middle fingers thrown in for good measure.
 Now, there is this.
"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon have ordered the army to continue preparing for a possible military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities at a cost of at least 10 billion shekels ($2.89 billion) this year, despite the talks between Iran and the West, according to recent statements by senior military officers."
I believe Israel hand has been forced.  It's 90%.  Three more years of Obama equals three more years for the mullahs.  Israel doesn't have three years.
