Why test weapons if you're not going to use them? If it's unacceptable for Iran to have the bomb, it's unacceptable. Elections do not change that, they only change the time line. Why test if you're not going to use? If you know where they are and you find them unacceptable, why not destroy them?
You know the US has your back. 14 permanent bases in that region already.
The deputy defense minister suggested Friday that Israel might be forced to launch a military strike against Iran's disputed nuclear program _ the clearest statement yet of such a possibility from a high-ranking official.
"I am not advocating an Israeli pre-emptive military action against Iran and I am aware of its possible repercussions," Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh, a former general, said in comments published Friday in The Jerusalem Post. "I consider it a last resort. But even the last resort is sometimes the only resort." [link]
Israel Detonated a Radioactive Bunker Buster Bomb in Lebanon
What kind of weapon leaves traces of radiation & produces such lethal & circumscribed consequences?
The special report was triggered by the radioactivity measurements reported on a crater probably created by an Israeli Bunker Buster bomb in the village of Khiam, in southern Lebanon. The measurements were carried out by two Lebanese professors of physics - Mohammad Ali Kubaissi and Ibrahim Rachidi. The data - 700 nanosieverts per hour – showed remarkably higher radiocativity then the average in the area (Beirut = 35 nSv/hr ). Successivamente, on September 17th, Ali Kubaissi took British researcher Dai Williams, from the environmentalist organization Green Audit, to the same site, to take samples that were then submitted to Chris Busby, technical adisor of the Supervisory Committee on Depleted Uranium, which reports to the British Ministry of Defense. The samples were tested by Harwell’s nuclear laboratory, one of the most authoritative research centers in the world. On October 17th, Harwell disclosed the testing results - two samples in 10 did contain radioactivity.
As you can see, not a lot of content here, but we do have the new Drupal (open source content management system) running and that means we have comments, forums, polls, posts and a whole community based site, simply from this one rather painless software upgrade.
I'm going to switch the domain name over now, even though this site is far from done, it is a bit nicer than the index.html file I've been rocking for the past few weeks.
Also I don't really know how to configure apache (the webserver) to do virtual hosts, so we're gonna be rocking the webforward option until I can get someone to figure that out.
