Did you ever dream that Communism would collapse in the Soviet Union. Did you ever think that China would invite capitalists to set up business within it's border? Yes, because their economies were unsustainable. Few places are as tightly run and lunatic as North Korea and as willing to let millions starve. I feared they might end with a war in their weakness, but they didn't. However, due to oil, the same logic does not hold true for Iran and Saudi Arabia. They can sustain a great deal of self-destructive wackiness for a long time. AND they have huge hordes of underemployed young men just waiting to be cannon fodder.

<Your second question after role change is hypothetical. Hezbollah baited Israel by attacking Israel first. And Israel fell for it.> You live in a dream world Chinu.......... Sunday, July 16, 2006 A Must Read Interview (Especially for American Appeasers) Posted by Hugh Hewitt \| 12:47 PM Israel Air Force chief Maj.-Gen. Eliezer Shkedy talks with the Jerusalem Post. (HT; Powerline). It is an extraordinary interview in many respects, but American appeasers especially have to focus on the general's comments about Iran: There are three indisputable aspects: Their leader, President Ahmadinejad, talks of the Jewish people and the State of Israel in terms that no other world leader would dare use.. You recall his conference on "The world without Zionism." Then he moved onto the Jews, to Israel. Two, he is trying to develop capabilities to deliver his attacking capabilities - land-to-land missiles with ranges to reach central Europe, Russia, China, India, certainly Israel. Missiles from planes. Planes that can carry this weaponry. Third, he is trying with all his might to reach a nuclear capability. There's no argument about his intentions. The nature of the centrifuges that he is producing is incontrovertibly not for peaceful purposes. This combination of thinking, capability of delivery and nuclear weaponry can come to constitute an existential threat to Israel and the rest of the world. It is no coincidence that the president of the US speaks as he does about Iran, and other world leaders do, too. jpost.com
