Israel Playing With Nuclear Fire?
Can't say I'd blame them if they were, in fact, planning to hit Iran's nuclear reactors and research facilities.
But it's very bad timing for this leak. I don't think this strengthens the Euro-US bargaining position; I think it weakens it, but conjuring up again the "threat" of Israel attacks on Muslims and uniting the Iranian populace against the "Zionist entity."
True, the report says this plan will only go through should negotiations with Iran fail. Still, as Jacques Chirac said, Israel missed a good opportunity to shut up.
