Israeli officials: No attack on Iran before Congressional elections

The Hebrew Epoch magazine website reported that estimates by senior Israeli officials indicate that Israel and the United States will not launch an attack on Iran before the Congressional elections at least, unless Iran plans a counterattack. Israeli security and political officials suggest that as long as no intelligence emerges about unexpected Iranian planning, the Knesset elections will be held on their scheduled date, while the US president prefers to avoid escalation before the Congressional elections.
