I would have no problem with the Israelis going in and bombing Iran nuke cites —and I wouldn’t mind it I we gave them some help —but not for us to be the primary military force if that should come to pass.
There will never be a democracy in the Middle East. Islamic culture and democracy just aren’t compatible. The only solution is unfortunately is keeping strong men (as was Mubarak) dictators (as is/was Assad/Saddam Hussein)or the profligate royal Gulfie sheiks and Saudi royal family. This regimes except for Mubarak’s have always been some kind of pain in the butt for the US. Ok we do lots of business with Saudis and Gulfies but they fund radical imams over here and in Europe. That crap should stop. Syria yup, Iranian controlled, but a hell of a lot better than Al Qa’ida. The only half way decent dude in Mid East is Jordanian king — but not a real powerful guy. Peace process is and was a joke. I don’t blame Israelis for wanting no part of it. Clinton did it for his resume as is Obama trying to do the same. As far as Syria is concerned, too bad the shit is hitting the fan with Russia —because if anyone had leverage in that area—it would be the Russians. Yes, they want a Mediterranean port at Latakia, but we’re being idiots (at least our government) and thinking it’s a good thing for Assad to go. If Assad goes, ok Mullahs lose an ally, but Iran doesn’t really need Assad—it/they would survive without him. Deal with Syria should be—ok Assad, we will let you stay under condition. Dump Hezbollah on its head and improve relations with Israel (don’t have to get huggy-kissy)but improve them. Look now at the Palestinian love fest going on. One thing I will never understand about Arabs (Muslims), they cry for a Palestinian state, yet when they scream in their religious voice —they cry for an caliphate (the antithesis of a nation state).
