sdemetri – You cannot deny that Iran’s leaders’ proclamations on the imminent demise of the state of Israel are strongly provocative, to say the least. And, the danger is not so much Iran launching trackable missiles against Israel (though, who knows what these kooks might do to accelerate the appearance of the 12th Imam) as it is that they will farm them out to their toadies in Lebanon or elsewhere who are capable of even less thoughtful behavior. An undetected border tunnel and a Ryder truck could then obliterate Tel Aviv without leaving any fingerprints as to the ultimate culprit. That is why I think Israel should announce that if they are attacked with nukes from any source, whether Iran can be shown to have anything to do with it or not, Tehran would be vaporized.

Yeah, yeah, we heard it all when people were criticizing Ronald Reagan for challenging the Soviets, and all the beautiful people said the USSR was here to stay and we had to live with it. No, Sir. Outside pressure is essential to bringing these unstable outlaw regimes to the tipping point.
