You don't see a boundary between when Israel is involved in a war and when the United States is involved in a war?

Sure there is such a boundry. But if Iraq attacks Israel, wether the US is engaged with Iraq at the time or not, then Israel becomes involved, do they not? Israel has as much obligation to defend itself as we do. The threat is more immediate and more serious in their case.

No, if we are already neutralizing Hussein effectively and scrubbing the scud box, IDF should stay home. They'll complicate matters for the long run.
