The reference to Israel as having "the Middle East's only nuclear arsenal" insinuates that Israel is consequently the real source of instability in the region.

Precisely.

And to legitimize Iran's acquisition of nuclear weapons. Israel has them, after all.

Presuming we "talk" to Iran, we have nothing to offer other than a continuation of their nuclear program. By sitting down, we acknowledge they've kicked our *ss in Iraq and Lebanon.

See post 24.

Israel, of course, has no reason to be piqued. It's not like they're an ally.
