Yuyutsu,

Here's a recent example of how "America does not care about Israel."

In the wake of UNESCO granting Palestinians full membership, the U.S. promptly cut its funding to the organisation.

James,I am not considering Israeli translations, but comments from Reza Aslan (of Aslan Media, which is an emigre Iranian think tank). This represents to me a balanced approach, sometimes sympathetic to issues dealing the Iranian regime and sometimes opposing it.
You sound a bit hysterical about "Zionists". You know, that there are normal people also living in Israel. For sure there are many religious and nationalist extremists, just as they exist in all countries in Middle East. At the moment there is a terrible danger emanating from an Israeli threat to Iran, particularly if the PM feels that he is projecting wide held fears from his constituency. There does seem to be a need for another approach with this problem, and it will not help to impose sanctions on Iran or to whitewash the perceived genocidal threats emanating from Iran.

You are still off-topic, Poirot.

I can address your points, but that would take us further away from the current discussion: "Is Israel preparing an assault against Iran?".

My answer is, No. Israel has no such capability. If it had, it would have used it long ago.

At the moment, 41% of Israelis (including 25% of Arab Israelis) favour an attack, 39% are against (54% among Arab Israelis), and 20% are undecided, but that ratio is only because they know that their military capacity is insufficient, and the current Israeli leaders, despite being more militant than the average Israeli, know it better than the citizens. Israeli citizens are facing extinction and are practically helpless about it (and so are the Palestinians, who would not remain alive either when the bombs fall). 11% of Israelis said that they will consider leaving Israel once Iran gains nuclear capabilities, but only a fraction of Israelis would have somewhere else to go - mainly the young and able. Would you like to accept the rest as refugees here in Australia?

Iran knows that once it destroys Israel it will be destroyed too, but their leaders don't care because they believe that their Mahadi will come back and raise them from the dead. However, the rest of the world should care, because dumping 400 nuclear war-heads on Iran in a second-strike, with Israel having nothing more to lose, will mean that this planet will be handed over to spiders and cockroaches. Therefore the world should help Israel, and itself, to remove Iran's nuclear threats before there will be no place left for humans on this planet.

As for your unrelated (false) claim that "America and Israel are conjoined twins", I suggest that you start a new topic. That would save us both from wasting our 4-posts/day limit on an unrelated issue.

Bempec,
I use the terminology of 'Zionists' to distinguish them from the Jewish people. The former are only a fraction of the latter, but it is they and their allies (mainly in the US) who are driving the policies of the Israeli state. That is not 'hysteria', it is demonstrable fact.

Oh really, James! And do you use a similar or equivalent terminology when discussing other ethno-religious entities and nationalities?

Yuyutsu,

"...but their leaders don't care because they believe their Mahadi will come back and raise them from the dead."

Nice to know you've got it all worked out down to the spiders and cockroaches.

You're right about one thing. It's a shame to waste 4 posts a day here.
