And silly me to think we should always be in control of our own nukes.

Are you really part one of "us"? How curious. I could have sworn you were Iranian.

At any rate, I agree with FaultLine that it's unlikely that we transferred nuclear weapons to Israel to destroy Iran's nuclear capability. First, consider the source of the information. Second, why use nuclear weapons when conventional weapons would do? Third, why use nuclear weapons in your own back yard?

It may well be that we will be forced to use weapons to disable Iran's nuclear weapons capability. If so, I am sure that you, as one of "us" would prefer that to having the weapons being used on the rest of us.

Rachel Corrie, who was such a great lover of life, would agree, if only she could speak, no doubt.
