You really think saudis will just fold up tent and go away as a threat and that tribes will take over if kingdom falls? You see no danger of al queada takeover?

You dont believe iran is planning on building nuke weapons. I think thats a naive poaition. I didnt understand the end of the paragraph re: nukes.

Also you didnt answer my question about israel as to whether going back to 67 lines was enough for you given the geographic cohesiveness you were looking for pal. I assume 67 lines are good enough but my point was that you dont get what you want with them. Pal issue is a tough one.

"And if they don't feel threatened, then they won't need nukes, will they?"

If they are developing nukes is it because they feel threatened by the US and/or Israel? Is that your point? I dont see it that way. I think it can be perceived as a forward move to gain more influence and power in the arab world by deterring israel and imposing will on arab states with nukes, hizbo and alliance with syria. I hope you are right becuase then a deal is possible.
