Israel has been threatened by the Iranian gov many many times (verbally). Iran funds, supports, trains, and arms Hezbuallah which they use in a proxy war against Israel. In the eyes of Israel, a nuclear powered Iran is a threat to their national security.
Now watch if Israel does strike Iranian nuclear sites, the UN will condemn, them, and most liberals around the world.
Yep they always do condemn them for everything and ignore the mass killing going on in all these other countries.
I don't think most Arabs would side with Israel. Many Arab leaders--the vast majority of whom are in place through non-democratic means--may view passively supporting Israel as the lesser of two evils. However, most Arabs, and indeed most non-Arab Muslims throughout the world would be outraged. And that outrage would be directed as much towards The Unites States as towards Israel.
Many Arab leaders are having talks with Israel right now to counter Iran.

Absolutely. The Saudis for example have stated publicly that they have no interest in seeing a nuclear Iran, and will themselves pursue nukes if Iran gets them. That's all we need a nuclear arms race in one of the most irrational trigger happy regions in the world.

You will get the speech soon from the liberal isolationist that we need to mind our business and the world will then somehow be nice to us.

Exactly, many Arab leaders. It is in the best economic and egocentric interests of those Arab leaders to side with Israel (which for all practical purposes, means siding with The US government). However, the overwhelming majority of Arabs in the countries they lead, as well as most Muslims worldwide, will not perceive such an alliance positively.
Sooner or later, Israel will attack and the public reaction from the Arab world will be outrage, but behind the scenes they will all be taking a sigh of relief.

There are many conservatives who are isolationist as well but they don't care what the world thinks of us. I teeter totter at the depending on the circumstance.
the entire point of Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders commotion in the last 20 years is to have America do this for them.
They have no interest in carrying out such riskie operation themselves.
Yea....like when they bombed Syrias nuclear reactor in 2007?
Look it up.
