Most weapons systems are improved after they've had actual combat testing.
Calling what's his face a psychopath and then doing nothing about it just make Olmert look impotent. Which he probably is. Not that Israel can't do something about it, but Olmert won't.
Powell is in wonderland if he thinks nobody will use a nuke in this century. Has he been living on the same planet as the rest of us or is he living on Fantasy Island.
Interesting, but keeping in mind it's the World Nut Daily I'm not sure it's worth a list ping. What say you guys?
The west will be more hesitant to act.
And, this has put the USA in more jeopardy.
It will take another 911 before we will act to protect our selves, it would be very hard for the President or the congress to be preemptive at this stage.
The only way to stop Iran will be through Israel, and I would think greater heads are working on this presently, or, I sure hope so in any event.
Welcome to the Hotel Armageddon.
It's never really served Jews well to rely on Gentiles for their protection.
Nor should they start to now.
They should also quit demanding that others spill their own blood and treasure on their behalf.
And he doesn't take shit from anyone.
G-d Bless Israel, India, and the United States.
Where do you see such a demand?
I have problems believing that the Mossad and others talk to World Nut Daily.
I've read articles here and there quoting Israeli Defense officials saying the US hasn't "done enough" to stop Iran.
And, did you read the entire article?
A quick search brings up 2 threads:

How many airliners were deliberate flown by hijackers into skyscrapers prior to 9/11?
Say what you will about Russian and Chinese Communist leaders, at least we must admit that we were dealing with evil but sane humans that valued their own lives and not religious fanatics who believed that dying in a fireball would earn them Paradise as long as they killed infidels like us in the process.
Sorry, describing the situation as: "... demanding that others spill their own blood and treasure on their behalf" betrays either a fundimental misunderstanding of the dynamic, or is an active attempt to find fault on par with a teenage girl attacking the girl she caught her boyfriend kissing.
Israel "demanding that others..." is no more out of line than demanding the police do their job. If the leader of the free world won't lead, it is not improper to tell that leader to "get the hell out of the way."
That is precisely what Israel is doing.
Am glad he was invited OUT by President Bush.
He sat on his rear end in D.C. and promoted telephone diplomacy.
Dr. Rice is out there, everywhere, cementing personal relationships and getting in the face of those who would attempt to harm this country's national security.
In the beginning of the first Bush term, he wanted to make head of the NSA a cabinet position but Powell balked because he did not want Dr. Rice his equal.
IMO, she's his better in every way. She even has bigger ba))$.
So it is your contention that the US has done enough to stop Iran?
I read this as being very significant!
I suspect he was invited to attend high level meetings to plan an attack on Iran. When things get hot, personal visits are made so communications will not be compromised. This is big!
