"And there is one important factor at play: it is one of the Middle East's worst kept secrets that Israel has the nuclear bomb. Iran certainly knows this and it will have a clear deterrent effect.
The result is that Israel might not need to take pre-emptive military action against Iran - if only because Teheran would never use a nuclear weapon against Israel for fear of itself being attacked, and annihilated, by the Jewish state's nuclear arsenal."
Israel is too busy now.

5. There's a good chance they will
|
|
And if they do, all hell will break loose, hundreds of thousands will die, and Jesus will NOT come back.
Then the winger shamans will come up with some excuse as to why Jesus didn't come back even after the Middle East is glowing hot. Probably something involving either gays or Bill Clinton or the fact that women are allowed to wear pants.

What do you mean "Jesus will NOT come back"???
If we don't get Bush out of the White House ... I was kind of counting on Jesus coming back.

He's not gonna be here just because a big war starts in the valley of 'Armageddon'. No rapture, no Jesus on a big white horse to save the day.
I have it on good authority that we're on our own.
