Saudis to let Israel flyover to attack Iran?
Israel Matzav —
... in the past. The Sunday Times of London is reporting that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has told Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that it will look the other way if the IAF overflies its country on a mission to remove Iran's nuclear capability. Traversing Saudi Arabia would considerably shorten the route to Iran. The head of Mossad, Israel’s overseas intelligence service, has assured Benjamin Netanyahu, its prime minister, that Saudi Arabia would turn a blind eye to Israeli jets flying over the kingdom during any future raid on Iran’s nuclear sites. Earlier this year Meir ...

Saudis give nod to Israeli raid on Iran

... and when ‘the balloon goes up’ we’ll see in the outcome what sort of deal was struck. Until then, all this talk of Saudi Israel preparations and clearances is meant to raise the credibility of a Israeli military option in attacking Iran’s key nuclear facilities.

Uzi Mahnaimi lying about Israel again
Yourish.com —
If it’s a Sunday Times of London piece that declares Israel is about to attack Iran, and the byline contains Uzi Mahnaimi, it must be a bunch of garbage.

And yet, the Times continues to publish this man. Witness the bullshit:
The head of Mossad, Israel’s overseas intelligence service, has assured ...
Saudis giving Israel a green light on Iran?
Hot Air » Top Picks —
... According to the Times of London , the Saudis have agreed to tacitly allow Israelis to transit their airspace to attack Iran and end its nuclear program.
