So, a "coordinated" attack is ok!?

I'm not over educated, or overread, but it sure seems to me the US gov just wants to be sure we keep the war machine business running. Maybe to keep ThAT part of the economy stimulated?

US fears uncoordinated Israeli strike on Iran

Washington concerned Israel will mount military operation against Islamic Republic, State Department official says. US consequently putting greater pressure on Security Council to impose harsher sanctions on Iran

Fearing an uncoordinated Israeli attack against Iran, the United States is working on several levels to pressure the UN's Security Council into imposing harsher sanctions on Iran, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Monday.

A senior US State Department official said there was growing concern among Obama administration officials ahead of an IAEA report set to be published in November indicating considerable progress in Tehran's development of its military nuclear program.

The US is concerned that the report may trigger Israeli actions against the Islamic Republic which may not necessarily be in line with US interests in the region.

The official said that Washington's reevaluation of an Israeli strike in Iran is based on various maneuvers Israel has performed in the past few years.

US concern over an Israeli move is so great, the official said, that Washington is working on several levels to pressure the Security Council.

This includes appealing to the Security Council to condemn Iran for its attempt to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to Washington.
