Come to think of it, it already is. I think we are consoling ourselves by saying it is not.

Yep... but I don't believe for a minute we're the ones pushing it... It is being thrust upon us.

Btw, with 300 nuclear weapons at their disposal, I don't believe any Arab nation will desire to tangle with the Jews in anything other than a skirmish...

But some governments may fall as a result of not acting against an Israeli incursion into the West Bank.

And if Jordan is one of them (though I have great respect for Abdullah), then Israel will push the West Bank Palestinians across the Jordan River and solve the problem of the occupied territories once and for all.

But it will take an event that Israel can stand and show irrefutably as an example of how they have suffered and should be supported over the Palestinians (who will also claim to have suffered).
