When Israel Draws A Line In The Sand

As 2010 begins, the clock is ticking, but is anyone in Washington paying attention?

Iran, an oil-rich oligarchy ruled by jihadist mullahs with a fanatical desire to destroy western civilization, is about to get THE BOMB.

A nuclear-armed Iran should be the worst nightmare of everyone who loves peace and liberty.

In response to this grave threat, the Obama administration makes occasional noises about stiffer UN sanctions, but the mullahs don't care about that. They are laughing all the way to the centrifuge. There are only two things that can stop the mullahs from obtaining nuclear weapons: military intervention from without, or regime change from within.

Our President has made it clear that he is no supporter of the brave young Iranian protesters who are dying in the streets of Tehran. Above all else, he seeks stability in Iran, even if it means choosing to do business with the tyrants who massacre political opposition. Without support from the west, the chances of regime change in Iran are slim and none.

The only option left is a surgical strike against Iran's nuclear facilities. That will be a difficult and dangerous mission. Tiny Israel will have no choice but to do it. She cannot allow a hostile Iran to possess THE BOMB.

So we will let the Jews take care of this threat, just like we did in 1981, when a surprise Israeli air attack took out the Osiraq Nuclear Reactor in Iraq. We should be eternally grateful to Israel for that mission, since it kept THE BOMB away from Saddam Hussein, who fancied himself the new leader of the Arab world.

Can you imagine the problems we would have had fighting a nuclear-armed Iraq in 1991? I wonder, would we have had the stomach to liberate Kuwait, if we had known that our troops might face a nuclear attack? If not for the 1981 Israeli air strike, Saddam and his murderous gang of thugs might still be strutting unchecked across the Middle East today.

The only reason we have the luxury of ignoring the present threat of a nuclear Iran is because Israel (the Little Satan) is at the top of Iran's hit list, and Israel is a small, nearby target. For the moment, we in the United States (the Great Satan) are outside the range of Iranian missiles.

Some military experts believe that Iran is less than a year away from having THE BOMB. Of course, Iran could well be closer to possessing nuclear capabilities than we realize.

We could wake up one morning in the near future to discover a mushroom cloud sprouting over an American city, courtesy of a suicide bomber with a suitcase nuke donated by the mad mullahs. How difficult would it be to sneak a suitcase through our porous borders?

Someday soon, Israeli intelligence will ascertain that Iran is almost ready to produce THE BOMB. Israel will have to act, no matter the consequences, because inaction would guarantee an Iranian first strike that would kill hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Jews.

When Israel is forced to attack the Iranian nuclear facilities, the Muslim world will wail and weep and cry out against the "Zionist aggression." Huge angry mobs will riot in cities throughout the Muslim world. Demands for censure at the UN will reach a crescendo. The Arab nations may even decide to retaliate by attacking Israel. Again.

We can only hope that the USA will resist the Liberal knee-jerk response of demonizing Israel for a preemptive act of self-defense. For the truth is, western civilization will again be indebted to Israel for destroying a grave threat to the entire world.

Once again, by acting to save herself, Israel will have saved us all.
