With or Without You

An irate Republican made a comment to me today that was meant to get me riled up against Obama. She said "when Iran gets the bomb do you know what the first thing they will do is? Drop it on Israel!"

I didn't get riled up. I very calmly told her that it would never happen. Israel would not let Iran develop the bomb. She retorted that Israel had better make sure to get some support from the US. I very calmly told her that "We didn't ask the US for permission when we took out Iraq, we didn't ask the US for permission when we went into Entebbe to rescue the hostages, and we don't need permission from the US to take out Iran. Israel will do what Israel needs to do to protect herself with or without permission from the US."

I think there's already a plan in place. Don't be surprised if you wake up one morning and hear on the news that Israel bombed the Iranian Nuclear plant.

Just don't count on Israel to take care of North Korea.

  3. I found an awesome video that I wish you could watch but it's in Hebrew and doesn't have subtitles.

    Have you ever watched "Operation Thunderbolt"? It's about Entebbe. I have it at home.

  4. In order for an Israeli attack to have any effect, they'd have to hit a little over dozen well defended sites. I wish it would be as easy as simply bombing "the" Iranian Nuclear Plant. Sigh.

  5. ck,

    Israel has pulled off amazing feats in the past and I am confident that they will do what needs to be done brilliantly.
