Israel's official policy is that it will not be the first nation to introduce nuclear weapons into the Middle East. In contrast to the coy hinting of some undeclared weapon's states, Israel thus actively denies possessing nuclear weapons. Its obvious capability in this regard has thus established de facto deterrence, while minimizing (but not eliminating) domestic and international controversy.
Deterrence, it keeps certain groups of crazed Jew hating peoples from launching an all out war against Israel like the one in 1948.
Thanks for the info, some of it I already knew. Didn't they re-arrest Mordechai Vanunu? I love the way that guy stood up to the Israeli Military might 17 years in jail.

That's right. 17 years in jail for exposing Israels nuclear arsenal. Freedom and democracy in action right there. Shame so many 'crazed Jew hating people' force Israel to behave this way. I'm sure they're a very peaceful and magnanimous country deep down inside.
sometimes it takes a dumb fuck cowboy to get the job done..unlike jimmy carter
Yeah but this one has caused over a 1 million Iraqi deaths going on 3-4000 US soldier deaths Billions of dollars and millions in profits to his oil buddies and many other war profiteering (Blackwater) through our tax dollars.
Now that's a Dumb Fuck Cowboy not to mention losing US credibility aruond this planet. Nobody trusts the US. Dumb Fuck!

as for the soldiers, THEY FUCKING JOINED THE ARMY!!!!
what is the definition of army?
are they fucking all retards that didn't know what they were getting into?
you're WAY out of line here pal
at least until a couple of years ago joining the army meant you wanted to serve your country. It meant youwould be called to action WHEN IT WAS THE LAST OPTION.
not to settle some (siver spoon, c student, military deserter, failed at every business he ever ran) assholes personal score to please his dad and steal the united states treasury and give it to corporations.
even though I do not support the war, I respect their courage.

Jimmy Carter was a dumb fuck peanut farmer unlike "dubbya" the dumb fuck cowboy. And I'm not so sure there was a "job to be done."
But whatever, it doesn't really matter now that we are there with no idea of how to ever get out. Just think jumping from the frying pan (Iraq) into the fire (Iran) is foolish - but hey - why change horses in the middle of the stream.
Guess GW wants his legacy to reflect his consistency - consistently wrong and wasteful with the lives of our soldiers. Just my opinion.
An intellectual pacifist english linguist may characterize a thread such as this as wanton aggressive illiteracy. He may also consider that the forces behind such linguistict behavior lie in the juvenilistic media prevalent in American culture today.
I dunno. I was just thinking about Chomsky as I read the last few posts. I dont' know much about him.
What do you think Chomsky might say here if as moderator of this forum?
If he were so inclined to share a post....
That he rigs the election so that something detrimental happens to the point that he has to stay in power for at least one. more. year. Or longer. I don't put it past him.
He's not Emperor Palpatine for God's sake.
I always laugh at people who find him both stupid and a Machiavellian master of deceit at the same time.
So this life is sacrifice...

1 million Iraqi deaths? Where are you getting that from? These numbers people find always make me wonder. Pretty soon it will be "4.65 trillion dead in Iraq!"
Furthermore, most Iraqi deaths are from insurgents blowing up innocent people for sake of creating chaos. I guess you could make the argument that terrorist acts wouldn't be happening if we hadn't gone in there, but Saddam would have still knocked off a few thousand I'm sure. Do you really think our military is just going around and killing everybody?

Its really quite simple. When America acts, they are solely and completely responsible for everything that everyone else, their children and their children's children do in reaction to it. If a suicide bomber puts a bomb in a toy and it kills a few kids or blows up a busy marketplace, America is completely at fault. Not the school said bomber attended, not his upbringing, not the even the bomber himself. it is AMERICA'S. Personal responsibility doesn't exist.
As another example, if two factions in any part of the world hate each other and commit violent acts on one another, and America gives any support to one side, America immediately assumes all responsibility for ALL ACTS OF VIOLENCE.
Its known as the iron law of Anti-Americanism. So as you can see America is responsible for about 95% of deaths worldwide (British colonialism makes up the other 5%). Glad i could clear that up for you.
BTW why is it that it's OK for Isarel to have nuclear weapons?
Peace
That's a damn good question.
Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.
no, that job has been outsourced to private contractors...
In the latest blackwater shooting, military personnel that arrived on the scene said that when they arrived the convoy was shooting at Iraqis who were running away.

don't forget jfk started 'nam which makes this little squabble look like a walk in the park.
osama said we couldn't stomach the loss of soldiers, that's how he would defeat us...we're pussies...looks like he was right.
bush didn't say that, the fuck who put together 9/11 said it
this just makes me laugh
