Well hopefully they'll wait a few months. I'm supposed to go to Qatar to play golf for a weekend in mid-April, it would be a shame if a war got in the way and ruined my golf plans....

Nation of Islam at a Crossroad as Leader Exits
By NEIL MacFARQUHAR

Leadership changes have altered the Nation’s direction in the past. Elijah Muhammad, the organization’s leader for more than 40 years until his death in 1975, was succeeded by one of his sons, Warith Deen, who broke with his father over the issue of Islamic orthodoxy (and changed his last name to Mohammed). Following Warith Deen Mohammed, this branch embraced diversity and traditional Sunni Islam’s teachings on unity.

Sunni Islam has teaching on Unity?

SA is lots more scared of Iran than Israel.
So the mighty Israel is scared. No wounder APAC is paying you.

Of course!

All the cooperating Arabs can join the post-action hew and cry against Israel after the deed is done. It's a win-win, no brainer for them, damage the Shiite Iranians, then join the chorus against Israel.
