| The Arab countries might support terrorists in Israel, but they would never go so far as nuking them for 2 reasons: 1. We'd level them. 2. Israel is a good scapegoat. Without Israel around they wouldn't have someone to blame all their problems on. Not to mention that keeping the Arabs angry at Israel distracts them from problems at home. These outrageous speeches and comments are more about chest beating and promoting nationalism than about what they'd actually do if they had nukes. Not that I'd want any of those countries to have nukes... But mostly because it would give them a lot more bargaining power than they have now. Not because I think they'd actually use them. | ||||
