It's all a bit hypocritical really. Israel has never signed the NPT, openly stole material and documentation to build it's nuclear weapons (as well as being supplied by other friendly partners) and refuses to allow any kind of inspection of it's Dimona facility.
Iran signed the NPT and has been allowing IAEA inspections, more than any other member of the NPT has ever been subjected to. The conclusion of the IAEA and the 16 alphabet intel agencies in the US is that Iran has no nuclear weapons programme. Nevertheless, Israel and George Bush say otherwise and want other peoples kids to go attack and die for Israel.

Israel test-fires ballistic missile after Iran warning

JERUSALEM (AFP) - Israel successfully test-fired a long-range ballistic missile on Thursday, a senior official told AFP, days after warning "all options" were open to prevent archfoe Iran from obtaining atomic weapons.

"We successfully test-fired a two-staged ballistic missile system today," a senior defence ministry official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.

"This was a very important achievement for Israel's ballistic capabilities," he added, declining to provide further details on the test.

Witnesses reported seeing a trail of smoke rising from the reported launch site at the Palmachin air base south of Tel Aviv.

War with Iran is bound to happen, and it will happen before Bush leaves office because he cannot leave it to chance with the next prez. But even if the US does not initiate this war and Israel does the US will come to its aid and get itself involved with another disastrous war that so far is not justified.

Another excuse for Bush to start another stupid war. Why dont we just start bombing everyone that has weapons and get it all over with at once since that seems to be what Bush wants to do anyways.
