hahaha, the overall history of that region around Jerusalem is riddled with war. Whether its the Muslims wanting that city, or the Christians wanting that city, or the Jews wanting that city. That area has been contested for ever since the dawn of biblical history.

Do the U.S. knows something we don't?? well yes of course..Russian and China will be knocking at our doors.
Israel really wants a war and when they start one, we are left to defend for ourselves.."NO IT WASN'T OUR FAULT!"

Don't worry about Russia or China...they have already cut a deal with us. Israel is just BITCHING as the U.S. has FORBIDDEN a Bombing Strike of Iranian Nuclear Sites. These sites must be SEIZED and dismantled. Bombing them would just poison the WHOLE MIDDLE EAST and that includes Israel. The Bitching is mostly for Congressmen with Large Jewish Communities.
Russia could give a RAT'S ASS about Iran...it just wants to keep making money on the use of it's large Natural Gas Pipeline. China wants to make sure the OIL FLOWS. They have been given promises that their interests will be protected. Besides...neither Russia nor China wants any part in a WAR with the U.S. Military. Split Infinity

If I$rael or anybody else in the region didn't have nuclear weapons/programs, there wouldn't be anything to whine or complain about.
When there's nothing to whine or complain about, I$rael is no longer a victim.
When I$rael is no longer the victim, they don't get paid.
When I$rael doesn't get paid, neither do the US politicians who support them (campaign contributions, outsourcing/contractual agreements etc)

The ME has been at war with each other for thousands of years. The only thing they unite on is their common hatred of Israel. Israel didn't become a nation again until 1948, so to blame them for the violence and instability in the region shows your bias.

If you think this is all over just the temple mount you are crazy. This is about the Zionist butchers that started murdering innocent people after forming their terrorist nation. And if your country has nukes when will they grow the
balls to admit it? Until quit crying like a baby about other countries that don't have them.

So was europe and asia and america, every area had wars and violence
but the only difference between europe and the middle east is that the mongols never made it to europe; they destroyed asia and the middle east sending them 500 years to the past by razing libraries and burning millions of books, destroy the infrastructure and water systems, killing thousands of wise and smart people who they deemed a threat
and after the mongols then came the turks, they industrialised but all the resources where moved to whats known as turkey, leaving the rest of islamic world in the dark for hundreds of years
and after the turks came colonialism and backstabbing of the Arabs, divide and conquer
they never had a chance to recover, to rebuild, to be free;
and after colonialism came what?
israel; created by the colonialists themselves
. . . is the practice by a country of being intentionally ambiguous on certain aspects of its foreign policy or whether it possesses certain weapons of mass destruction. It may be useful if the country has contrary foreign and domestic policy goals or if it wants to take advantage of risk aversion to abet a deterrence strategy. Such a policy can be very risky as it may cause misinterpretation of a nation's intentions, leading to actions that contradict that nation's wishes.

Israel has a clear desire to stop and halt any threat coming from the outside, and debates aside, people might not like that attitude, but at least they are consistent about it.
that is a lie.
they have been stealing Palestinian land from DAY ONE.. crossing all the boarders agreed upon for is ra el.
oh poor is ra el didnt get to keep all the and the tried to seize..
now they kill & treat Palestinian people just as badly, if not worse than anything the Nazi WORK camps did to cause the creation of is ra el in the first place?
and you think they are defending themselves?
you are delusional...

Comparing Israel to the Nazi's is vile and particularly obscene, given the people involved in the comparison. I'm not sure it CAN get any worse for offense intended.
Now Israel is nothing like the major aggressor nations of the past. Why? How can I say that among so many who would hate Israel for any reason? Well.. Let's look at some facts here.
Israel is attacked on a regular basis and has been for a few decades now, by people with sticks, stones and occasional guns. The suicide vest is a neighborhood favorite and rockets have come to be the thing to buy in the last 10 years or so. All in all, the best the Palestinians can muster really keeps Israel pissed off. Thats about *ALL* it does or can ever realistically do, without massive outside help.
On the other hand, Israel has no such limitations of resources and as everyone points out, they have the bomb. 80-90 of them with a range of between 2,500 and 11,500 Kilometers depending on which source one takes for the Jericho III vs. their Space Launch vehicle and how well these can or have been adapted as ICBM's. By the way...that would put it about Houston, Texas for on outside range.
The point is....IF Israel so desired, the could all but 'erase' Gaza, being about the size of Bakersfield.....and given a week, pretty much wipe out the West Bank with a 100% all out war approach.
The fact they don't.......Never HAVE.....and have never even considered such radical actions is how they have NOTHING in common with a monster like Hitler or Stalin or Mao. Those men would never have tolerated so much as jokes about their enemies living within miles of them and not being obliterated to the last man standing, IMO. Israel has 100% of what it would require in power. They have the humanity and decency not to use it.
