Thread: Israel defies US over settlements

America won't put any serious pressure on them just blow some hot air to look as though they are objecting as they are going to need Israel to take out Irans nuclear capability.

Afraid you are right. Will likely hear the usual "deeply troubling" or "deep concern" from Hillary.

They are a sovereign state and us Americans never meddle in affairs that don't concern us.

eventually the US will need to stand up to israel, but of course this will be political suicide for whoever decides enough is enough. the only scenario i can foresee is obama doing it after the 2014 mid-terms....and unfortunately that isn't very likely either IMO.

can't wait for Iran to have nukes, so the balance of power in the region is restored, and those nasty Israelis kept in check

Can't wait 'til Iran has Nukes which gives Israel justification for turning those facilities into a parking lot...

Would much rather see Israel disarmed of it's nukes. Religeous fanatics with nuclear bombs, whether it be Iran, Pakistan or anybody make the world a dangerous place.

Israelis are dangerous fanatics, the war on terror should start with them

Iran with nukes is the only solution for peace in the region,

Hopefully Obama is voted out and replaced by a real man. Rumour has it that Mitch Daniels is going to run for President with Jeb as his VP.

If we have some balls in the WH we might crank up the draft and assist Israel in wiping Iran off the face of the earth.

I'd have to agree... The sad things is that the majority of American's give a ratz ass about Israel... It's the Joo power brokers that pull the $$$ strings...

you are not making any sense, how can I be proven wrong ? Iran has nukes and it's a question of time before Israel realize that they have no leverage and will need to go the bargaining table and shut the fuck up. Regardless, they are screwed long term.

not going to happen, you fight fire with fire, and that is giving nukes to their enemy

it worked great between 2 crazy superpower, the USSR and the USA, why not between Iran and Israel ?

Don't know any "Jew power brokers...", just corporate interests with international interests, big media and American politicians in their pockets.

The world in a state of suspended terror for 30-40 years is not my idea of "working great", especially if with parties on the extreme. Religious fanatics with bombs postured toe-to-toe might not be so restrained for so long.

^ I disagree, the cold war brought a certain stability and was probably the best thing that ever happened after WW2, the nuke kept everyone in check

Israel is an annoying little bug that will need to be dealt with eventually, Iran could serve that purpose effectively with little effort and cost

stability in the middle east is key for our economic growth, as long as oil is flowing cheap. I wouldn't surprised if GW Bush big plan was to disrupt the flow supply so it could create a supply crisis and jack up the price for his oil buddies. His nervous laugher at a press conf just before the war when he was asked if Iraq was key to "cheap oil" might have just revealed that evil plan of his.

Religious fanatics aren't dangerous, corporations are.

Israel has been assisted by "real" men for far too long. The ME problem persists after billions of dollars of assistance.

The Israelis have made only one significant concession toward peace and since have done nothing but increase tensions in the region.

You and others never fail to take the opportunity to take a run on Obama. In this case make the Israeli issue somehow his fault. Nothing to do with Obama. The "real" men of which you seem so fond have failed to do a damn thing in bringing peace too the region in the 60 years Israel has existed.

The real men have left Obama with two wars and a failed economy to deal with. Obama made it plain he expected the Israelis to stop the expansion of settlements. Remains to be seen what his response will be to this news but at least he had the balls to make it plain to Israel what was expected.

As far as Israel bombing Iran, can't believe anyone with a bit of sense would support such a move including the Israelis. A can of worms would be opened that would inevitably drag the US and others into another war. Just what the US needs right now, a third war in the middle east. A region that ain't worth much in the overall scheme of things.

But then what? With nukes in the neighborhood all around (Pakistan, India, Israel) and the US intermittentenly threatening to bomb it, Iranian leadership could say, with some justification, that obtaining nuclear bombs is a defensive move. But using it is another matter. I don't want to see Israel or anybody else "dealt with" with a nuclear bomb.
