A growing chorus of top former Israeli officials are speaking out in opposition to an Israeli attack on Iran, with former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert the latest to declare that now is “definitely not” the time to attack Iran.

 

Today’s opposition to the war included a very public spat in New York between Israeli Environmental Minister Gilad Erdan and former Mossad Chief Meir Dagan, with Erdan accusing Dagan of “sabotaging” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s efforts to gain support for the war, and Erdan talking up the long-standing efforts by Likud to legally bar former officials from speaking publicly on the possible attack.
