I really messed up Sean's post- the questions/statements about the nukes being the "boogeyman" were made by another poster. Sean responds to that individual toward the end of his post.

hmmm..
Not enough information about the submarines to allow someone to figure out what they are doing there, but it is interesting.
I think I'll snoop around on that and find out what I can.

Absolutely! Perhaps you could keep monitoring things and take a day off from work if the situation deteriorates.

Just found this on Sean's Homeland Security site, in reference to an imminent attack on Israel.
Postings on the forum have been left up for short periods of time in what appears to be an attempt to communicate the message, and then remove the traces of the message from public view.
Among the targets we have seen mentioned are the "Great Market" in the old city of Jerusalem, specific bus numbers, schools, and nightclubs. The following except is an excerpt from the most graphic of the Arabic postings:
( Tomorrow morning the great hitting (attack))
The buses, the greatest market and at night they bleed in their nightclubs and their 17 bus and their market and their schools more By Allah we will strike the sword into their necks and into their religion and they will bleed..
And peace, mercy and blessings of Allah be upon you

this is an example where the "hidden nuke" argument breaks down. if they had these things, they could certainly spare one for use in Israel, right? Instead, the threats and the attacks are bus bombs, car bombs, etc.

Have to leave. Stay safe everyone.

That really doesn't make sense because of the geography. Israel is a very narrow country. Directly to the east of the Israeli cities, you'll find large populations of Arabs. Not only would the land be uninhabitable (and land is scarce there), the water supplies would be contaminated, and water is a very scarce resource in the middle east. Then again the Arab populations would be right in the fallout patterns. It wouldn't even make sense. Besides, Jerusalem is the third holiest site in Islam. They aren't going to nuke Jerusalem.
Add to all this the simple fact that if you detonate a nuke on Israel there is not going to be any attempt by the US to restrain Israel. Anyone who nukes Israel might as well commit suicide. The Israeli response will be that swift and effective.
