A catastrophic war with Iran could force the US to abandon its support for Israel.
As Colonel Lawrence Olkerson says, the prospect of Israel losing US support is the result of an incredibly stupid strategy adopted by the US during the Gulf crisis.
"It will completely disable us - and I'm not sure I'm saying this in a negative way - to defend Israel, to join Netanyahu or anyone else in everything that concerns Israel, because we will not have the authority to do so or the blessing of the American people," he explains.
This issue, according to Wilkerson, will become a key issue for the United States in the next six months.
