Minister of Pensioner Affairs Rafi Eitan told Israel Radio Tuesday that Israel faced the possibility of "an Iranian missile attack," and called on the home front to prepare bomb shelters and protected rooms in case of an Iranian attack.

"The Iranians have said very clearly that if they come under attack, their primary target would be Israel," Eitan said

And if reports are true, Olmert wants to give back the Golan Heights in exchange for peace with Syria.

Israel is a country in need of a strong SANE leader.

Sharon in his present state has more brainpower than Olmert.

Confirmed or not? Have our boys in NORAD and Iraq gone on alert?

"The Iranians have said very clearly that if they come under attack, their primary target would be Israel," Eitan said

Interesting, the way the enemy thinks.

Five years ago, in total anger I suggested that if there is another attack on the US similar to 911, that a half-square-mile area of the following cities be targeted regardless of how the attack was enabled, or what muslim countries funded it: Cairo, Damascus, Baghdad, Teheran, Riyahd, Tripoli and Islamabad...

The only thing that has changed is that Islamabad and Tripoli might be off the list after 5 years.

It is significant that the maggots in Iran, regardless of how they are attacked, identify Israel as its target of retaliation.
Isn't not allowing the enemy the initiative one of the primary rules of a successful war?

What classic treatise on warfare discusses and recommends "proportional" response when dealing with a crazed irrational enemy? Name one.
