Israel And Iran Nearing Point Of No Return
The Silent Majority ^ | 11-03-11 | J.D. Longstreet

When US military forces leave Iraq next month, Israel’s door to Iran will swing wide open. Iraqi airspace will be available for Israel’s air force for the first time since US troops invaded Iraq.

Tensions have been ramping up between the two government’s for the past year, or so, especially since Obama’s announcement that US forces would leave Iraq next month.

As a police officer many, many, decades ago, I learned, first hand, that some people just don’t know when to shut up. Many times a police officer will find that he has to separate two people shouting threats at each other. While one calms down the other continues, even after being warned multiple times to be quiet, shouting epithets, curses, and threats at his former antagonist. More often that not, the loud-mouth finds him/herself face down on the ground, with his hands cuffed behind him, and on his way to jail. As we indicated, some people just cannot grasp that there is a time to shut one’s mouth — and keep it shut.

Such, it would seem, is Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of Iran. He continues yammering when he should simmer down. One must consider the possibility that he is attempting to convince himself (more than anyone else) that Iran can destroy Israel. Ahmadinejad is on the brink of a rude awakening. He is about to talk himself into a thrashing of biblical proportions.

On the other hand Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, has had more than enough of Mr. Ahmadinejad’s threats and posturing as well as Iran’s arming of proxy troops in nations surrounding Israel. For Netanyahu — it is put up or shut up time for Iran.

Obama has done a splendid job in foreign affairs:
* Europe in worse shape (and splintering)
* Middle East on the brink of war again (maybe nuclear war)
* China emboldened and stretching her influence further
* Pakistan now a full-fledged enemy
* Russia emboldened and stretching her influence further
* North Korea building even more nukes and war with the South closer
* Central America degrading
* South America more belligerant
Hmmm, is there any place on earth that he hasn't made worse?

How exactly does that work? Iraq is not an ally of Israel.

Iraq has nothing with which to shoot down the raid.
