Remeber the wars in Israel.
1948 All arab countries attack Israel.
1956 French pull out of Suez Canal, Israel take over (and then gives back) the ENTIRE
SINAI desert
1967 Israel launches pre-emptive strike against Egypt, other countries preparing to
attack Israel. Capture Sinai desert again.
1972 Yom Kippur war. Attacked on Holiest day of year.
198X.. Nucklear(as "W" would say it...)
The head of The Israeli Sub fleet says, that:hitting strategic targets is not always a task the Air Force or the infantry can carry out{...but...}a submarine can perform {This} mission...{snip}
{There are} dozens of security operations, {snip}{have}been made possible {because of} the IDF's sub fleet. ...snip...These missions will remain in the shadow for years to come, {for security reasons!}

Perhaps we need to tell this to the president of Iran. Too late!

Gee. The more things change, the more they remain the same.
4-20-06. Had to search my own archives for this one.
Note the following items that were not in the interview, but were HIGHLY implied.
1) Israel's Nuke-u-lear capability is NOT limited to land.
2) Israel's Submarine fleet ISN't just near the land itself. (so much for a pearl harbor type attack)
3) These subs can do STRATEGIC missions
hinted at: LIKE launch and start a Global ThermoNucl-uear WAR!
3a) or LEVEL every Single oil capital and field in the mid-east.
So. Do we REALLY want IRAN to have their own bomb, to attempt to destroy israel only to have the ENTIRE mid-EAST (aka WW III) glowing? I think not.
However. DO I think I want our "W" Bush planning and implementing a *ar *ith IRAQ with the (oh, so talented) Donald Rumsfeld in charge for this one TOO???
NO.
And by the way. I firmly stand by my prediction (at top of blog) that "W" *ill reinstate the DRAFT.
