The Israelis didn't want the Iraq war You have got to be kidding. After the Iraq war has become an enormous disaster, you think the rightwing Neocons of the Israeli government get away with saying...duh, uh...we really meant take out IRAN not IRAQ. Wolfowitz, one of the architects of this incredible disaster, wanted to take over Iraq, flood the market with cheap oil, destroy OPEC and make Israel the big wig of the region. Now that it's been shown to be a fraud and a disaster, the Neocons aren't getting away with it no matter how much silliness they spout. Now the rightwing Neocons are prattling about putting MORE US troops into Iraq. Kristol thinks that some 30,000 should easily do the trick. Now they want to bomb Iran? See any Neocons volunteering for duty? Didn't think so. They're a bunch of predatory cowards unable to screw up enough moral courage to take responsibility for their actions when things go completely awry.

The Israelis didn't want the Iraq War? Then why are there thousands of posts here from you promoting said war? This is about the most unbelievable statement I've ever seen you post , and that's saying something. Of course, it makes sense that you'd want to pin it all on Iran now, since that's the war the in crowd wants next. By all indications, it ain't gonna happen, which is a relief to the conventional reality set anyway.

"The Israelis didn't want the Iraq war, though Saddam was an open enemy; they were and are much more worried about the Iranian threat. They would have ordered the US to fight Iran, if they could have." The Israelis were very much for the invasion of Iraq, and you know it. They'd LOVE for us to strike Iran.

Nadine, Just replying to the anti semitic/american left on this thread is akin to attempting to convince a 6 year old to read something other than a comic book. They are comfortable with their existing mental boundaries and will stomp and cry should you even suggest something else to read. Dont stop trying though, I enjoy it when you rattle the cage even just a tad. SDG
