A Nuclear Free Zone? Hey, they’ve got one of those not far from my neighborhood, near Oak Park, IL. No doubt that’ll prevent those nasty terrorists from trying to blow up anything there, eh?

Cyrus, with all due respect, Israel will never disarm, nor should they. It is Israel that is surrounded by enemies that swear to drive them into the sea, not the reverse. Israel has had nukes for years and years, and no one doubts they are for a defensive deterrent – could you say the same about Iran?…

i seriously doubt USA allow such an attack with its troops next door at the mercy of shities in Iraq.If you think insurgency is bad ,wait till shities join the party.The most logical option is a nuclear-free zone in middle east Israel included.

The Iranians offered the US bidding on construction because they believe that the US represents the greedy Satan figure they demonize us with.

That means they think they can bribe us into looking the other way.

That says some disturbing things to me… They DO believe they are still fighting the crusades, they DO believe that the US is the Great Satan, they DO believe that Satan is greedy enough to be bought off, and they DO believe they will be successful in isolating Israel to destroy it.

What really bothers me is that even some idiot republicans might go for it, if not as fast as the democrats.

Fascinating article (the London Times one) on many levels.

Interesting gem: “Cross-border operations and signal intelligence from a base established by the Israelis in northern Iraq are said to have identified a number of Iranian uranium enrichment sites unknown to the the IAEA.”

Just think about everything packed into that sentence. It’s enough to give me hope that everything’s going to work out in the end.

All Things Beautiful TrackBack ‘ If Israel Is The Tumor Then Iran Is The Metastasizing Cancer’:

“If “Israel is the tumor”, according to the hysterical and deranged Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, then Iran is the cancer, and it’s metastasizing….Israeli intelligence warned the government that Iran was operating enrichment facilities, believed to be small and concealed in civilian locations….”

You’re convinced of Israeli resolve, as am I. And I’d bet that Iran is most worrried about Israel’s reaction than that of any other country.

Now, I wonder why that is? Could it be that the Israelis say what they mean, and mean what they say? Could it be that they know that moral correctness isn’t a popularity contest?
