Why is Bush turning his back on Israel?? Something's going on, and, Bush IS NOT what he seems. Clintoon would have been "crucified" for suggesting Israel do this , not to mention promoting a Philistine state in the middle of Israel!!

It's only proper that the US should be advocating non-proliferation and a nuclear free Middle East, it's the only consistent standpoint to take.

Right..../s

The US and Israel walk hand in hand, and if Israel is to give up her nukes, then it should be professed that the US does the same.

It "ain't" gonna happen.

Sometimes the department’s positions ostensibly contradict those of the president.

Bush hasn't spoken on this issue yet....

By having surrogates say the things you want to, but can't, that has been the way of leaders forever. This is Bush policy, handed down to Condi and mouthed by those charged to do so.

Remember the good ol' days {last week}, when the only power mad dictators in this country had to wear robes?
Seriously, it is time to put the ruling class in its place.

"Partisan Politics

This is something that I personally have first hand knowledge of. Individuals within our State department and career diplomats who are willing to do anything in their power to discredit the Bush administration. Why are these people still employed? Have we got a deathwish or something? "

Death wish? One would think so. And based on my conversations with 2 State Department career employees who lived next door to my hotel(Lanson Place, 1 Jalan Ampang Hilir), I would guarantee it.

For the record: I shamelessly 'stole' the map in #15 from IAF ThunderPilot. :)

Sounds great doesn't it?

First Israel give up its nukes.
Then Iran announces that it produced nuclear bombs.
After a while Iran demands from Israel to leave all the "Arab lands", otherwise it will nuke Israel.

Sounds great doesn't it?

Yep,Hitler was elected democratically alright,but he dismantled Germany's democratic institutions before doing the things that made him (in)famous.There is a world of difference from being elected democratically & running a functioning democracy.

I think they should worry about Pakistan (MUCH MORE than is evident). I don't think there is much reason to fear Israel selling nuke tech to Iran for example. I also don't think there is much chance that an unfriendly goverment will take control of Israel's nukes and use them against, or sell them to others to be used against us.

You know it won't happen;). On a different note, I see from your about page that you are not flying F-16's, is that a Kfir? I worked at Base 1 and Base 4 in the late '80's and I thought they refered to Kfir pilots as "ThunderPilots".

Well, the US is a signatory to the non-proliferation treaty, which commits them to doing that. I don't see any way that a solution to the various Middle East problems could not include ensuring that it is a nuclear weapon free zone.

No. I lived there all of 2003, and part of 2004. I bought a condo under construction across from the Petronas Towers. I should be moved in by June. I am currently in Ventura, Ca.

Disgruntled Clinton holdovers spouting off. Condi needs to go down there and kick their butts.

Uh--We will if you will might be a more appropriate line. And that's the line the Israelis should use to us.
