Israel has been making serious threats against Iran’s nuclear program in recent weeks. But one has to wonder: when Israel bombed Saddam’s power plant they didn’t make a huge public announcement - they just dropped the bombs.
Iran’s threat to cut of international oil supply with a naval blockade doesn’t strike me as very smart either. Why punish your customers when you yourself defied the international community.
When you think $140 for a barrel of oil was expensive - just wait … when these idiots start another war in the Middle East the price could easily double. Petrol and food prices will skyrocket and there will be even more starvation and food riots.
If this happens Iran and Israel can very proud of themselves.
Let’s hope the next winters will be warm and mild.

With ‘putting’ Al Qaeda into the Gaza Strip America and Israel have the perfect reason to flatten it. So a new war might be coming soon - even involving Hezbollah from Lebanon and the US.
On the other side: constantly firing rockets into Israel doesn’t help either. Hamas and the other groups should be smarter than that.

Anyone out there still believes there will be a ‘two state solution’? Instead Israelis and Palestinians should work on becoming one state TOGETHER with equal rights - maybe even adopt a new name for that state to find some common ground.
But this is just a fantasy, because neither side will be willing to give up it’s nationalist and religious claim to the Holy Land.
Instead the Palestinians will dissolve more and more - and simply become minorities in other Arab countries like Jordan, Egypt, Syria and Lebanon. Which has happened since 1946 anyway.



Walls do work. The Iron Curtain did it’s job for over 50 years, the Chinese Wall is still here and the US is building it’s homeland protection wall against those nasty Mexicans.
But in the long run all walls will fail.
I perfectly understand Israel’s idea and desire for the wall. It certainly stopped many suicide bombers and land based attacks. But the Palestinians are now shelling or shooting low tech rockets into Israel. Walls don’t stop hate and innovation.
Maybe negotiations will some day?


Click here to visit to visit ladies from Israel on their Tour of Duty. It is an unusual look inside the military world - usually filled with guys and testosterone. Hardly a showcase for military nuts - but more a documentation that woman can do the job as well as any guy. Plus it documents very well the camaraderie between the soldier girls. Intimate, personal and very real.

Just to show that stupidity knows no limits [BBC News]: israeli police arrests israeli neo-nazis who had planned attacks on other israelis.
These young men were all from Russia, before they immigrated to Israel and become naturalized citizens, but still the irony …
