Israel's political crisis deepens
This just adds more fuel to the middle eastern fires. And with Iran deciding to ignore all efforts to halt atomic weapon production, there is a very good chance that Sharon may elect to do something dramatic to save his political life. There certainly is precedent for it..."After Israel bombed the Iraqi reactor on June 7, 1981, using U.S.-supplied F-16s and F-15s, the Reagan administration said, "The United States government condemns the reported Israeli air strike on the Iraqi nuclear facility, the unprecedented character of which cannot but seriously add to the already tense situation in the area." Most other nations joined in denouncing the action." Since that raid, the Iranians have moved all of their own nuclear facilities underground.
And Israel cerainly has the technology (U.S. supplied) and the inclination.
