I remember Iraq version 1.0. The first worry raised was "what if SCUDs hit Israel and Israel retaliates?"

Israel is a small nation surrounded by unfriendly nations.

I'm reminded of the bit in The Princess Bride where V'cini comments on the classic blunders.

Don't get involved in a land war in Asia.
Don't bet against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

And, I would add, don't f%^$ with Israel. Disproportionate response is how they survive.

The only "solution" I can see is mass exodus. Give Arizona to Israel and remove the thorn from the Muslim paw. Like that will ever happen. AIPAC and PNAC can't be diverted from proving just how big their brass balls are.
