Israel refuses to take a back seat to the threat of an Iranian nuclear attack. While the presidential candidates pontificate on how they will side with Israel against any external threat to it's sovereignty, the Israelis know Obama will not lift a finger to help in a war were Arabs are fighting Jews as he is a Marxist socialist, and McCain says he will help but it's anyone guess what he will really do while seating on the 'left' side of the isle in Congress continuously looking to be bipartisan. Remember the gang of fourteen?
The fact of the matter is, the Israelis have to make their move before Bush leaves office or they are on their own. Other wise, if they wait until after the election in November, the middle east will become a nuclear waste land while the United States and the free world wring their collective hands over how they can help but not become involved. The best way may be starting a sincere dialogue. Understanding the problem.
Of course, Europe will wait for the US to lead the way, but as we all know, given the two presidential candidate's philosophies, neither will have the guts to take a stand. Therefore all will be lost including 53% of the know world oil reserves which will drive the oil price through the roof.
And guess who will be blamed for the entire mess by the liberal Marxist Democrats and their media lap dogs? That's right, the Republicans and Bush! The general public will believe every word is gospel.
The Investor's Daily here lays out the scenario that many others have only hinted at for months.
keep the faith, the battle is taking a turn for freedom.
A Darkening Mideast

*War On Terror:*
A "breakthrough" in Iran's nuclear program, a shipment of advanced U.S. anti-missile radar destined for Israel and word of a secret Iranian bomb factory. Are these signs Iran soon will be under attack?
A top contender to succeed Ehud Olmert as Israeli prime minister says that Tehran is poised for a "major breakthrough'" in its nuclear program, one that is "unacceptable" to the state of Israel.
Deputy Prime Minister Shaul Mofaz told the Institute for Near East Policy in Washington that a nuclear-armed Iran is "an existential threat." The former army commander added: "We don't want war; we want peace, but we will not let the second Holocaust take place . . ."The high-ranking Mofaz is certainly in on whatever plans Israel has been making to strike Iran, which lends credibility to his somewhat mysterious statement. Indications from Israeli officials suggest Iran may be attacked before year's end.
Another leading candidate to lead Israel's Knesset, foreign minister Tzipi Livni, recently told her fellow Cabinet members: "The Iranians have no intention of halting their nuclear program."Some Israeli pollsters currently view the reputed former Mossad terrorist hunter as likely to win out in an election against the hawkish Likud Party leader and former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. She and Mofaz both belong to the Olmert's Kadima Party, founded by ailing former prime minister Ariel Sharon.
But whether Israelis choose Mofaz, Livni or Netanyahu, it seems certain that Iran will be faced by a government of the Jewish state more than willing to bomb its widely dispersed nuclear facilities to smithereens.
Another sign of how seriously both Israel and the U.S. take the Iranian threat comes in a Pentagon report that we'll be giving a high-tech detection and tracking radar system to the Israelis. The technology reportedly can tell the difference between missiles and decoys and is expected to be in operation by early next year.The Pentagon spoke of supporting "additional defensive capabilities for Israel," and the U.S. already has agreed to provide tens of billions of dollars to the country in aid.
Add to that a report last week from a Kuwaiti daily, denied by Iran, of construction of a secret nuclear weapons construction site in the Al-Zarqan region near the city of Ahwaz in the southwestern area of the country near the Iraq border. If true, this would be a development completely unnoticed by the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Iran insists the facility is a power station that has existed at that location for 40 years.
In his latest book, "Churchill, Hitler, and the Unnecessary War," columnist Pat Buchanan makes much of Winston Churchill's love of war, charging that the British statesman was more like a pagan of the Roman Empire than a Christian Englishman. But vanquishing a great evil requires a warrior who fights to win.
Israel seems set to place someone in power who understands that well, as what Churchill called a "gathering storm" repeats itself in the Middle East.
