" As usual, you can't see the forest for the trees, and your worst charge is the teenager's cry of "hypocrisy!". ".. GAWG help us all.Only teenagers cry hypocrisy these days. LOL! As usual you didn't answer my very direct question regarding a NUKE FREE MIDEAST. Why am I not surprised, since we should all know by now that Israel's intentions are to do as it pleases, when it pleases, where it pleases, and damn the topedoes,unless there are serious consequences.Since no country will seriously attack Israel while it has NUKES, then no problem-o. But what keeps Israel in check? Only economic sanctions, which will always be undermined by the US booty transfer. The US touts a " balance of power " BS scenario when selling F-16s to PAk, saying India can spend it's fortunes too to measure up.Well that's disgusting enough, but they did at least acknowledge the benefits of a balance of power. But NOT when it comes to Israel...Nooosiireeee! Arm Israel to the nuts and let them do as they please, and then wonder why the US is loathed, not hated, but loathed in the ME, and fumble around deflecting the 911 attack as just some cwazy cwazy religious nutbars , when anyone with two brain cells to rub together KNEW it was because of Israel. E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E! And again : >>.So tell me Nadine....if all countries in the ME , as well as India and Pac. and even maybe North Korea , were to give up their NUKES if Israel gave up theirs, would you find that an appealing proposition?<< E’M’

That particular "teenager's cry" seems much more in vogue in LindyBill land, see siliconinvestor.com for example. Of course, the grand arbiter is always the final judge on when any particular word is or is not appropriate.

>>"The question isn't nukes= bad or good, but what the parties who have them intend to do with them, and whether nuclear proliferation can be slowed before a bunch of suicidal fanatics lay their hands on a nuke and blow up a major city with it."<< Oh golly, let's hope none of those right wing "God gave us this land" West Bank settlers, you know....."suicidal fanatics" get their hands on some of those Israeli nukes. But wait...no way that could happen...those "suicidal fanatics" don't have any sympathizers in the Israeli Knesset or military, do they?
