How would you know? There has been no "nuclear warfare these days". I never said I support a nuclear strike on Iran, however, so no need to apologize to me.

The above said, I certainly would not bet against Israel.

Are we the worlds policeman? Isn't it about time that we let the middle east be the middle east? Why do we feel that Israel should answer to us? Do any other countries that we provide aid to answer to us? Very few if any...

Guess both Netanyahu and you are wrong...again.
The latest CBS poll says:
Thirty-six percent of Americans say the Obama administration's policies have made the country safer from terrorism - up from 28 percent last May - while 34 percent say they've had no effect and 19 percent say they've made Americans less safe.

Good luck. The Jews have a stranglehold on our government, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

You'd prefer the Persians, we assume.

Perhaps I misunderstood, or simply mis-stated my response to you. In any case, I normally wouldn't bet against Israel either considering they have a very well-equipped, well-trained, and fierce defense force, but I do believe that the odds are in the very least stacked against Israel if Russia and China chip in, which is my concern.

Israel v. Iran, just one on one, my money would be on Israel.

I think the world really will end in 2012.

With that being said, NO MORE AID TO ISRAEL.

Dumbass.
I'm sick of a small population of Jewish-Americans with dubious loyalty pressuring our officials and influencing our media and banking industries to do their bidding for their tribesmen in Israel.

We can all pretend it doesn't exist when it's so blatantly obvious.

I am not entirely convinced the Russians could prevail over Israel.... Their military is impressive....

Just sayin'......

Rep. Ron Paul statement on new Iran sanctions act « The Passionate Attachment
That is rational thought

The debate they had tonight was scary, seemed like a competition on who would be the most hawkish

They will have another one of these war debates on CNN soon hopefully Ron Paul wont be blacked out again
