Roy,

You don't have to worry. Under a true threat of nuclear weapon, Israel can destroy the all oil fields in the area. The west world is well aware of this option, and as it needs these oil fields – I can tell you that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. The USA and GB will find few reasons to invade to this country a moment before (they will say, for example, that Saddam hide his dangerous weapon in Iran).

If not, Israel will bomb what is needed to be bombed in Iran and the UK will roll its eyes to the sky and will say that Israel is hearting the values of the free world.

Ayre

Get that chip off your shoulder.

You might be surprised to find that we are aware of what the IDF did at Osirik, and I suspect it meets with near universal approval. Cracking feat of arms, by the way.

Near universal.

Did you ever wonder why it's a good idea to have separation of church and state? Look no further than the fundamentalist regimes in the middle east. I believe it might be time for some turban renewal.

Arye,

I didn't quite catch everything you were saying. A language thing, no doubt. Would you mind having another go for my sake.

Judd,

I was cynical about the situation.

I wonder what each of you is ready to do against a threat to his own home, I also sorry that it seems to be that the USA and the UK fail to understand who the real enemy here is.

Not mentioning the nuclear weapon, Iran with the add of Syria supports all the terror organizations in the Middle East for years.

Arye,
I am in two minds to offer my personal thoughts but in this case I feel that they may well be of use.

IIRC all through the years from the early 50's to the late 90's quite a few people residing in Western Europe, USA and Canada were living rather too close to what were once considered to be first strike targets for the USSR. Some of my formative years were spent being educated within flash and fallout range of several big US airbases and when living at home in London I and 8 million others were in the cross hairs for several decapitation shot aimed at central government.

From the late 60's to the late 90's a good part of Europe was subject to terror attacks by various political groups. Just ask forum members (or parents)living in Italy, Germany, France, Spain and the UK how they coped the specter of a blast bomb in an inner city pub, a railway station, court house or police station.

Ask how some of these people coped with that all enveloping sinking feeling whenever the cruise missiles were were taken out from their protective silos and driven through green country lanes to be erected at pre-determined sites throughout the land in the hope that they would still be able to function after a first strike.

Arye I hope you will forgive me for finding you thoughts:

somewhat inward looking and rather offensive.

Perhaps politicians and people of today could learn something from Old Europe after all.

Jaw, Jaw not War War – it worked for us.

Roy,

Sorry, I can't get your answer about terror in Europe seriously - with the exception of the UK with Ireland.

About the cold war, you took a side so what do you want? To take a side in a conflict and living like you are not taking a side?

About Iran - this country supports terror for years - but as you and your friend don't like to hear this - as long as this terror was aimed only against Israel, it didn't bother you too much.

Oh dear, Arye.

That chip's obviously so firmly implanted in your shoulder it's now impossible to remove.

So sad, so sad.

One hopes that one day you will see the light.

In the meantime, I'm off to the washing up.

Bye for now.
