word from KAN is that Israel's security cabinet has told the IDF to be more ready for a possible strike on Iran. the reply out of Tehran: any attack would push the fighting past the region. meanwhile the cabinet is set to sit on Sunday, its first gathering in more than a month. Gadi Eisenkot, the man in line to build Israel's next government, told Netanyahu to hold off on military action that isn't urgent. Netanyahu pushed back, saying security calls get made in coordination with the defense establishment. so is Bibi angling for a second round before he's out the door?
