Yes I think we need to continue on this path. A solid, united front threatening to invade Iran would make them give up their nuclear weapons program. Had the world done that with Iraq, Saddam would have caved and left the country for excile and then there would have been zero reason to go to war. But the world not only was split, countries like France were wispering in Iraq's ear that they would stonewall us and not to go anywhere and Russia was (reportedly) giving Iraq information on our troop movements.
As for Israel if the US does not support them who will? And then they will be wiped out as there is not enough bullets in the IDF to stop an all out Arab attack. And I like how your comments insinuate that Israel is the cause of all problems in the middle east. They are no more to blame than anyone else...if anything they are better than their adversaries as they are not hell bent on wiping the other out.
And as for Iran using a nuke, yes I firmly believe they will. Whether it be a direct attack from an Iranian missle or a small suitcase bomb given to a Hezbollah suicide bomber as soon as they have it they will use it. Nukes were a tool of defense when the fear of mutually assured destruction was eminent. we had that with the Soviet Union. Ahmedinjad has already said he will wipe Israel out at all costs and Iran has proven over the years they will incur any loss needed to justify their goals.
The old super powers are no more and they use every tactic possible to piss us off.......Everyone is waiting for our downfall
