Be sure and click on the graphic ... it's scary.

There seems to be a great deal of 'war' talk again.

1. From the article..

"And there is one important factor at play: it is one of the Middle East's worst kept secrets that Israel has the nuclear bomb. Iran certainly knows this and it will have a clear deterrent effect.

The result is that Israel might not need to take pre-emptive military action against Iran - if only because Teheran would never use a nuclear weapon against Israel for fear of itself being attacked, and annihilated, by the Jewish state's nuclear arsenal."

Israel is too busy now.

2. I think they will wait for the US to do the dirty work.

3. of course there's lots of war talk.

poll numbers are low. nothing gets an administration back on track like non-stop TV coverage of bombing a muslim nation into oblivion.

4. The Bushies recently sold Israel a bunch of

nuclear bunker busters. Hmmmmm

5. There's a good chance they will

And if they do, all hell will break loose, hundreds of thousands will die, and Jesus will NOT come back.

Then the winger shamans will come up with some excuse as to why Jesus didn't come back even after the Middle East is glowing hot. Probably something involving either gays or Bill Clinton or the fact that women are allowed to wear pants.

7. What About Jesus?

What do you mean "Jesus will NOT come back"???

If we don't get Bush out of the White House ... I was kind of counting on Jesus coming back.

8. Nope, not a chance

He's not gonna be here just because a big war starts in the valley of 'Armageddon'. No rapture, no Jesus on a big white horse to save the day.

I have it on good authority that we're on our own.
