If...if...the Israelis use the bomb...all bets are off on the status
of the Palistinians. They have been playing nice with the
Pals..largely because of the choke collar on them belonging to the US.
If they go ahead and nuke Iran...the collar will have been
removed..and its quite possible Israel will decide that Rome Plows and
bulldozers are the Final Solution to the Palistinian Problem..and
Israel will bulldoze them into the sea. Or rather..run them clear out
of the area. After all..it will have been demonstrated that they are
deadly serious..and have the nads and the means to pretty much call
the shots. Bitch about it..and they have more nukes.
You want to be a Hamas leader and be begging for financial aid from
neighboring countries..all who are standing there with their mouths
agape..watching the mushroom clouds rising above what used to be some
fair sized chunks of Iran? Israel would simply say..keep it up..and
your next.
God but they would hate Israel...but they would be stone afraid of
them too, when they realize the gloves are now off.

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.
Think of it as having your older brother knock the *** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner
