Possibly, sarge. I suppose the airheads shrieking from the fringe right are hoping to blame this on Obama, though methinks Dunya's disaster in Iraq spurred Iranian nuclear ambitions along somewhat....

Great post Sarge, i agree. As usual putting the Liberals in their place. Tee Hee!

And what has Obama done? What has Biden done?

Sarge at 12:45 AM JST - 7th July "whilst Iran inevitably gets nukes"

On President Barack Obama's watch?

What has happened on Obama's watch?

What's putting Liberals in their place? You'll have to do much better than that. < :-)

Israel "has a history" of disproportionate actions or responses for perceived self advantage. When they reach the insane point of being unable to resist the temptation to use one on a neighbor, because they always have to go that bit too far, there will be a retaliatory nuclear response from its enemy (within the Islamic world) at some point thereafter. That is the "promise land" promise that has been consistently delivered on Israel over the past 5,000 years and will inevitably follow. Then the matter of Israel will be tragically be just history again. The world will survive from a few nuclear bombs with little impact on the rest of us. It should make front page headlines in the press. Someone will build a museum on the bomb sites. Prayers will be said. The dogs will bark and the wagon will move on.

Israel "has a history" of disproportionate actions or responses for perceived self advantage" That may have something to due with the disproportion support for her enemies. No? They have always been surrounded by enemies without the slightest glimmer of hope in terms of peace.

Me personally thinks that the only promise they have their annihilation. how many times have people tried that? Can you name a people that have suffered more than Jews throughout history?

It seems you have not had time to check any maps of the Middle East. If Israel were to use a nuclear weapon on a 'neighbor' they would essentially be using it on themselves. That is unless Israel has a new secret nuclear weapon-proof bubble that covers the whole country. BTW, a 'few nuclear bombs' in the Middle East would certainly have more than 'little impact' on the rest of the world. Where do you think a lot of the oil and petroleum you use and the products (such as the plastic computer you are typing on) that are made from it comes from?

I don't want anybody hurt, and I mean anybody.

Don't think for one minute that a psychotic emotional national leader will hesitate to drop a nuclear bomb on a neighbor if conditions suit. Reason has long gone out the door by this point. I appreciate "history" is banned on JT, so read up yourself for example on Hilters's plan to kill off everybody in Poland, Ukraine etc., and fill the place with Germans. But people should never been held accountable for the actions or proposed actions. We just talk about the latest insane tit for tat.

skipethong: Why is it that the large Jewish and Islamic Arab communities live in peace, prosper, go to the football together, and choose not to live in enclaves? All people on earth a valuable, very valuable!

Brunobear,

Serious question. Do you actually read what you write before you post?
kinniku at 11:22 AM JST - 7th July

so read up yourself for example on Hilters's plan to kill off everybody in Poland, Ukraine etc.,

However, he did not plan to kill off Aryans as well. A nuclear weapon (Do you seriously know what they are and what they can do?), would affect Israel almost as much as any neighbor. Israeli leaders have no interest in dying that I can see...

If Israel were to use a nuclear weapon on a 'neighbor' they would essentially be using it on themselves.

Unless they use it in, for example, the US so that Iran would get blamed and become pulverized by the US. Israel is the master of false flags.

Israeli leaders have no interest in dying that I can see...

Usually, when the crap hits the fan, the leaders are usually not in Israel (eg, when they attacked Lebanon a few years ago). I don't even believe NettedYahoo's family lives in Israel.

Oh! I see! The fantasy game! Let me play...or if they use it on the moon and the moon crashes into the earth, the spacemen will be blamed!

Israel is the master of false flags.

Actually, it is you that is the master of false flags.

Usually, when the crap hits the fan, the leaders are usually not in Israel (eg, when they attacked Lebanon a few years ago).

Heh, so all the leaders leave Israel every time Israel is involved in any conflict...Wow, so wrong it is amazing.

I don't even believe NettedYahoo's family lives in Israel.

The man himself lives in Israel, as does his family. You know, they have something called the internet on which you can find such things out.

Well until you kindly provide a link for such things, I'll go with my source that his family lives (spends most of its time) abroad.

Moderator: This line of discussion is irrelevant. Back on topic please.
kinniku at 03:07 PM JST - 7th July

I'll go with my source

Yes, I am aware of your sources that suggest things like the moon landing didn't happen. As I said, fantasy...

Anyway, each country is free to pursue their own paths and other countries are free to agree or disagree with those paths. This goes for both Iran and Israel.
sabiwabi at 04:24 PM JST - 7th July

Its one thing to disagree with the path of another country, its a completely different thing to attack that country using baseless claims as an excuse.

Yes, the two things are completely different. However I don't think it would matter to you whether the charges were baseless or not as I am sure you would support a nuclear armed Iran. So your point is rather mute as far as your opinion about the claims being baseless goes.
