That brilliant quote of Golda Meir cuts straight to the heart of the issue.

The headline to this article makes me think of the NATO policy (which the United States has historically made clear also applied to its ally Israel):

The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all ...

If we had a President who loved our country and freedom (we don't), this article's headline would be followed by this hypothetical quote:

America will strike Iran if Iran attacks Tel Aviv ...

The irony is that most likely 0 will get dragged, kicking and screaming, into the fray. Iran has already said it will consider any attack by Israel as also an attack by the US. If they keep that promise, not only will commercial shipping get hit in the Persian Gulf, but very likely some of our naval vessels.

I hope 0 only goes after Iran, and doesn’t also bomb Israel. (I think I’m kidding...)
