ANTHONY CORDESMAN'S UNANNOUNCED DEFECTION
Something happened to Anthony Cordesman's perspective. He is a
military analyst at the Center for Strategic and Intl. Studies. He
was a brilliant defender of Israeli security. The last few times he
wrote about the subject, he has implicitly worked against Israeli
security.
In the August 16 New York Times Op.-Ed., for example, he supports the
proposed US arms sale to Gulf States and arms gifts to Egypt and
Israel. His arguments are debatable but reasonable. He is too bright
to overlook serious points, but does. That suggests he no longer
cares about Israel.
He omits the crucial fact that both Egypt and S. Arabia are major
enemies and neighbors of Israel, and that no country threatens Egypt.
It's a serous omission not to acknowledge the risk to Israel of the
arms to Egypt and S. Arabia.
He claims, what I've heard before, that it's the free US arms that
keeps Egypt from attacking Israel. He does not explain why that
should be so. I think the free US arms keep Egypt capable of
attacking Israel. He calls the bribery of Egypt keeping the peace.
Some peace, if it requires bribery!
BAWAHAHAHAHAHHAHA - Yep, Egypt is just chomping at the bit to attack
Pisreal, afterall, Israel is a major world producer of................
well they are the major supplier of.......well their natural resources
of....... I cannot think of any reason to attack Israel and the
only reason they ever fought was for defensive reasons
TANKS OBSOLETE?
Iran claims its new missile can pierce Israel's Merkava tank armor
(IMRA, 8/18).
Just about anything can take out those crappy Merkava "Mobile
Muffles"
Offensive measures and defensive measures have leapfrogged over each
other since the beginning of warfare. Iran exaggerates its prowess.
I think not, the technology to take out a tank has made the tank
obsolete in modern warfare. Just look at how a small civilian
militia decimated Israeli tank columns as they defended Lebanon from
the most recent Israeli aggression in the region.
Is its tank claim true? I would not like to see industrialized
countries brought down to the level of non-industrialized ones having
less concern for the lives of their own troops and of innocents.
If you enjoy burning to death in a can, join the Israeli tank corps as
they have a Merkava "mobile muffle) waiting for you.
U.S. VS. IRAN
The Revolutionary Guards have become Iran's main army, because it is
indoctrinated. It also runs many of Iran's government-owned
industries. Now the US indicated that it is about to declare the
Guards a terrorist organization. This declaration is intended to
discourage some foreign countries from doing business with it. Some
of them are expected to balk (IMRA, 8/16).
Some of them, how about all of them. The world is not going to fall
for the lies of the ZioNazis and Neocons again, and Iran just toying
with the idiot in the White House and playing him like the fool he has
spent 7 years proving himself to be.
The Guards were fomenting terrorism in Lebanon for years. It is
difficult to imagine why the US waited so long. European countries
that do business with it - are these the ones that liberals criticize
Bush for not lowering himself to their level?
The only terrorists in Lebanon were recently defeated by the Hezbollah
citizens militia that formed in response to Israel's previous
terrorist attacks upon Lebanon.
