#4 This all works off the assumption that nuclear weapons are the end-all, be-all of weaponry. I wonder what will be going through the minds of the Mullahs when they launch half a dozen missiles at the same time, and EVERY DAMN ONE of them destructs a few hundred feet after launch? And what will the Iranian people do, after every single broadcast heard in the country, overwhelming their local broadcasts, tell them that their leaders just tried to start a nuclear war with the US? As in "Grab a pole and put a mullahs head on it!"

Several times in the past Israeli politicans and legislators have felt profoundly threatened by events in the Arab world. Closing the Straits of Tiran. Attacks from the Golan Heights. Movement of an Iraqi brigade through Jordan.

Guess what happened each time?

Think about it, smn: unlike the looney Left, the Israelis have balls.

#6 "But Iran, a charter member of Bushâs "axis of evil," is believed to be only one to three years away from being able to make nuclear weapons." Yeah, and only one to three years from coming face to face with the mother of all daisycutters.

Q: How big a bomb can you put in a B-2?
A: Big enuff.

#7 Very astute comment from that guy at RCSIS. Bet he gets paid a lot to pontificate like that.
