Israel are intent on bombing Iran ASAP, but their only concern is whether or not the Americans will back them up after they do. Not looking good. Europe is very worried about this situation.

At the moment there are no consequences for Israel, no matter what they do. They are the Quebec of the middle east..sucking off the teet of a much bigger entity, but still managing to control it. I don't blame them with how they act, we are the suckers who let them get away with it. It's pretty amazing how this little pint-sized country has the west by the balls.
A lot of the terrorism plots and anti-west sentiment stem from relations between the countries in the middle east. I honestly think a lot of the terrorist blow back we get out west is how we treat Israel like the golden boy who cannot do wrong, even when it clearly does. Now obviously they are the most western and advanced of the middle east nations and we share a lot of the same values, but I just don't think they are worth protecting. There's too much blowback in our backyards for their actions.

How can you compare Quebec to Isreal? Would the US want to murder all of the francophones if the rest of Canada were to cut out support? I can't claim that I understand even an iota of what is happening in the middle east, but I am pretty sure there would be more than one country interested in wiping Isreal off the face of the earth.
