Would they go ahead and attack while Bush was still in office, and they could count on his support.
Imagine iran with nuclear weapons.... surely Isreal will seek to prevent this. Just seems they might be a little scared if McCain doesn't win, and think they need to act more quickly. I also think if they were to...they would wait for some other excuse as well, to have a reason to give to the international media.
 
The UN is about to impose a 4th round of sanctions against Iran for their refusal to cooperate with IAEA demands. Israel is in the middle of a governemtal shake-up with Ehud Olmert resigning and Tzipi Livini trying to put together a new group of party leaders. With these two events happening concommitantly, I don't think any pre-emptive strike is being considered by Israel at this time nor during the rest of Bush's time in office.
