"...when it has threatened NO ONE with a nuclear attack...."

"do any of us really know FOR A FACT that Israel has " not threatened anyone with a nuclear attack?

Did you use the "do any of us really know FOR A FACT that" argument with respect to Iraq's WMDs?

Did you use the "do any of us really know FOR A FACT that" argument with respect to Iraq's ties with Al-Qaeda?

Considering Israel's secrecy about its military capabilities do you really know FOR A FACT that Israel has orbited Spy Satellites on their Shavit missile? I don't doubt it but I don't really know FOR A FACT that this is true.

Vananu's Dimona disclosures and his subsequent trial and imprisonment indicate that Israel has nuclear weapons.

But none of us know FOR A FACT that Israel has nuclear weapons.

"Neo.. do any of us really know FOR A FACT that Israel has Nuclear weapons?"

What a clown you are! You want to pretend that Israel doesn't have any nukes. Does ANYONE ( other than you ) think that, including the IAEA?

Hawk, you were not very concerned with FACTS when it was Saddam in your sights. The probability of Israel having WMD was much higher than of Iraq, even before we confirmed the matter by invading.

You need to reread your own post and ask yourself whether you would apply the same arguments you do for the case of the US & Israel to the case of Russia and Iran.

It is precisely this kind of very lopsided logic that negates our credibility on the world stage.
