And with some justification. Israel is not some shining white knight

lot of muslims.

Or should we wait for China and N Korea to develop longer range 3-stage
missiles capable of hitting CONUS? I live in northern California and we
will be in range within a matter of years from both of these nations.
National security is hardly "war-mongering" after 9/11...

Too late. China already has a few ICBMs that are capable of hitting
large parts of CONUS.

He's right ofcourse, especially that Israel's existence is at the very
heart of those attitudes. The arabs habe proven remarkably generous -
just leave them alone and they're willing to excise the problem
themselves.

Since we spent years within range of Russian missiles and planes, I
doubt that would be all that dramatic a development.

See what I wrote above - the ability to hit any part of CONUS is hardly
illustrative of power. Besides, assuming that they hit us and manage
not to draw so much as a firecracker in response, just what glorious
future is there for a China thats just disintegrated much of its
customers
