Israel ready ‘to confront Iran alone’

The old expression about nothing serving to focus one’s mind so much as the prospect of being hanged comes to mind with this.

Israel alone will have to confront the perceived nuclear threat from arch enemy Iran, the country’s ultra-rightwing Strategic Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman said today.

“We will have to face the Iranians alone, because Israel cannot remain with its arms folded, waiting patiently for Iran to develop non-conventional weapons,” he told public radio when asked about a possible Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear installations.

At least everyone over there hasn’t had their brains anesthetized by political correctness.
