Reply #151: That may be the case. Certainly, resonable people can disagree. BUT...

I have no doubt that all three of the remaining presidential candidates -- McCain, Clinton, and Obama -- would *all* retaliate with nukes if Iran nuked Israel. The only issue here is that Senator Clinton didn't need to say it in such an unnecessarily inflammatory manner. She could have used the standard candidate-speak "all options are on the table" which means nukes. Senator Obama has used that phrase himself.

Of course, as I said in another thread, Iran isn't going to attack Israel. So it's moot anyway.
