    Leave Iran alone and confiscate the 200 or so clandestine nuclear arms that Israel acquired illegally <ok>

    why the assumption that Iran is the belligerous party here?

    Because they are ruled by a nutjob Religious Dictatorship rather than a nutjob Religious Democracy.

    Why the assumption that the enemy of my enemy is my friend?

    Its not, just dont expect me to believe a word that is said in their ill if everything previous has been a lie. The threat isnt a military one, its a political one. Saudi Arabia (hardly one of the biggest advocates of democracy and human rights) being one of the biggest culprits here. Never friends for sectarian reasons, Saudi Arabia is concerned about Irans growing political strength in the region and are all to happy to assist Israels ( hardly a beacon of democracy and religious middle ground itself) obsessive campaign against the Iranian state. America have been bummed with Iran since their puppet even more brutal dictatorial regime (which the CIA brought to power by overthrowing an uncooperative democratically elected government) was overthrown in a popular uprising.

    Also I am more likely to side with a nation that hasnt aggressively engaged in military action for over 2 centuries than a nation that hasnt once, since its inception, not been involved in aggressive action

    You know a country's a threat when it means Israel and the likes of Saudi Arabia are in agreement about how to deal with it

    Oh and Israel isnt a democracy, one of the biggest lies being fed to the masses. At the very least its an ethnocratic state, but more verging toward an exreme ethnocracy or apartheid state

    "In March 1985, Denis Goldberg, a Jewish South African and member of the African National Congress and sentenced in 1964 to life imprisonment for &#8220;conspiring to overthrow the apartheid regime,&#8221; was released through the intercession of his daughter, an Israeli, and top Israeli officials, including the president of Israel and allowed to go into exile to Israel.

    Goldberg said after arriving in Israel that he saw &#8220;many similarities in the oppression of blacks in South Africa and of Palestinians.&#8221; He called for a total economic boycott of South Africa, singling out Israel as a major ally of the apartheid regime. Refusing to live in a country that supported Apartheid South Africa Goldberg quickly left Israel and moved to London, England."

    "Veterans of the anti-apartheid struggle said last night that the restrictions endured by Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied territories was in some respects worse than that imposed on the black majority under white rule in South Africa.
    Members of a 23-strong human-rights team of prominent South Africans cited the impact of the Israeli military&#8217;s separation barrier, checkpoints, the permit system for Palestinian travel, and the extent to which Palestinians are barred from using roads in the West Bank.
    After a five-day visit to Israel and the Occupied Territories, some delegates expressed shock and dismay at conditions in the Israeli-controlled heart of Hebron. Uniquely among West Bank cities, 800 settlers now live there and segregation has seen the closure of nearly 3,000 Palestinian businesses and housing units. Palestinian cars (and in some sections pedestrians) are prohibited from using the once busy streets.
    &#8220;Even with the system of permits, even with the limits of movement to South Africa, we never had as much restriction on movement as I see for the people here,&#8221; said an ANC parliamentarian, Nozizwe Madlala-Routledge of the West Bank. &#8220;There are areas in which people would live their whole lifetime without visiting because it&#8217;s impossible.&#8221;
