#1 Tel Aviv is Nothing without the financial and political help it gets from Washington

In other words, Obama has quietly informed them that he won't stand behind them next time there's trouble. Green light, boys...

#2 I think Bibi won't take any Persian nonsense,and with or without an OK from *THE ONE* he's going to do what he thinks he needs to do. And he has some delectable incredibly hot mushrooms in some silos in the Negev.

So-called speaker Ali Larijani knows full well that if Ahmadinutjob, the super-secret holier-than-holy virgin-enabling hidden 13th Imam, tries anything stoooopid, Ali, himself may be glowing a Bright green in the dark at night.

#3 This has been a Muslim fantasy since at least the 1980s, and probably long before. A Lebanese electronics engineer once assured me that the US spends half its defense budget to buy weapons for Israel, as this is the only way Israel could have beaten several Arab armies at once.

When I offered to refute this, he almost put his fingers in his ears and went "La-la-la-la I can't hear you!" The reason being that to admit that the Jews defeated the Muslims because they were *better*, would amount to denying Islam itself.

You mean, Allah *doesn't* favor Muslims? But Allah *does* favor Jews? Impossible! Unless the Jews cheat!

This means that if the US would withdraw all aid from Israel, then Israel would just stop existing. So the US is to *blame* for all the troubles in the Middle East.

As an aside, this is also why Iran calls the US "The Great Satan", because only Satan could stand in the way of Allah, in support of the Jews. Muslim logic. So America is the personification of Satan.

#4 Well, it's all in your point of view Ali. IMO, if it wasn't for American alliance---giving us something to lose, we'd cleaned the Muslim cancer from Middle East decades ago.
