>>> Iran isn't an Arab nation.

While technically true, where it comes to Israel they might as well be. And they do, unfortunately, possess that common thread that makes them problematic -- radical Islam.

>>> In fact, its the most advanced nation in that part of the ME, rivaling Turkey. And it has rockets more than adequate to cover the distance between Iran and Israel. Why do you think Israel has not made a move to date?

I think Israel has had weak leadership until now. That's why.

I would much rather see Iran acquiesce than for them to get into with Israel because there will be a lot of unnecessary death. But I don't see Iran backing down. The nation, through its leader, is spewing hatred, and I believe Netanyahu takes the threat seriously.
