and Syria. Imagine nuclear tipped SCUDS on Israel in 1991... We did bomb, in spite of the same kind of leftists who preached against military action against Germany's rearmament in 1933-1938. Just like now.

Chinese proverb.

that those who are the most enthusiastic supporters of Israel going to war against Iran live well outside the range of Iranian missiles?

Peace in our time is possible!!

Which is why you have this pro Arab anti Christian anti Europe anti American Pro Saudi history. Crusade is bad, but ottoman occupation of Byzantine is good, and arab invading Persia is good, arab invading Orthodox Christian Byzantine lands are good. Israel is Apartheid, but Saudi Arabia is a democracy. Leftist traitors, go live in Saudi.

You maybe right that Ot is not an existential threat ( wrong langauge ) , but it is a strategic threat .Remember the security apparatus in the region was built on Israel predominance militarily , if that is altered , then a new era is opened with all attendant risks .If people are ok with that then fine , but we got to be clear of the risks , remember the true leaders are responsible for the cost / benifit strategic calculus . Furthermore, you got to understand the Iranian mentality , It is primailry rational but the incremental ideological push is ever present ( continuous ) push of terrorism on the back of a nuclear deterrence .

make different, from antisemites' propaganda threats and real dangers. But I think so, this time Iran does not intend to attack Israel, so histery is unnecessary.

I am not sure I get the connection between saudis funding lots of universities and the articles .Although it is true saudis are more internally focused. unlike Iran .

IRAN WILL NEVER COME FOR ISRAEL WITHOUT NUCES !!!. TO WIPE ISRAEL FROM THE MAP, TO LIBERATE IT TO THE RULE OF ISLAM, IS IRANS RELIGIOUS DUTY AND BELIEF !!!. ISRAEL CAN NEVER WIN A CONVENTIONAL WAR AGAINST IRAN BECAUSE OF IRANS CONVENTIONAL CAPASITY !!!. WITHOUT THE NUCES IRAN WOULD NEVER DARE TO COME FOR ISRAEL, BECAUSE IT KNOW IT WILL THEN BE NUCED TO DEFEAT. THE IRANIAN NUCES IS THERFORE FOR DETERENCE, TO DETER ISRAEL TO USE NUCES AGAINST HER. HOWEVER - !!! - IF IRAN WOULD LOOSE ANYWAY, SHE COULD STILL WIPE ISRAEL FROM THE MAP WITH NUCES, SINCE THE SPIRIT OF SHIA - ISLAM, THE EVIL ONE, COULD STILL PREVENT THE PURPOSE OF HASHEM WITH ISRAEL, AS NAZI-GERMANY TRIED TO. THE SHIA-ISLAMIC SPIRIT IS, SELFDESTRUCTIVE IF ITS RELIGIOUS INTENT AND PURPOSE IS NOT REACHED. NETANYAHU AND BARAK IS NOT IN ERROR REGARDING THIS. Arn Sweden.

Not only Iran...but, the new Muslim Caliphate that is forming now, is not just a threat to Israel...it's also threat to the whole world. Yona is like all the other liberals (peackniks) who have their heads in places where the sun doesn't shine...where the good refuse to fight the evil that is ruining our societies. They believe in the good of man, from within, to save the day? Apparently, these clowns haven't looked into the heart of pure evil--the heart of all Islam. The coined phrase of (only) radical Islam is a like. Their unholy Koran is what it is...it is what it teaches! Just read it...you'll will see for yourselves. I believe in knowing your enemy...thus, knowing how to defeat him. The world needs to wakeup and come to the true realization of what Islam truly is: pure evil to its core!!!

Ya think??? Of course they know that in any straight nuclear war, Iran will be vaporized, but what happens when Iran secretly sends a nuclear bomb to Tel Aviv via a terrorist proxy? Obama would probably suggest additional economic sanctions. Iran would accuse the Mosaad of blowing it up themselves. The media and UN would find moral equivalencies and blame it on Bibi.

ALTHOUGH IRAN IS IN THE MIDEAST IT IS NOT AN ARAB STATE AND HAS A DIFFERENT MINDSET TO THE ARAB NATIONS. IT IS PROUDLY ISLAMIST AND SEEKS TO BRING ABOUT THE PROPHESIES OF ISLAM AND HASTEN THEIR "MESSIAHS" ARRIVAL WITH THE DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH STATE. THE JEWISH PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP AND SUPPORT BIBI!

Yes Sarah B. I too noticed that those calling for war generally live as far away from Israel as possible. We must stop the right wing extremists from imposing war on us.
