| #5 Gen. Mattis: We Pay A Price For Supporting Israel Mattis got dinged in the media for this, but I read the quote as saying the moderate Arabs don't have the balls to step up and do what's right. We do pay a price for supporting Israel. It is a necessary cost sometimes. To quote a certain Democrat Prez: Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty. |

| #4 I disagree. If you remove their entire infrastructure, the nuke project will die on the vine. When there's no bridges, power plants, water plants, sewer plants, food production, roads, buildings that aren't rubble and anything trying to enter the country gets pegged before making more than a mile across the border, it's certainly possible. And on the plus side, Iran will never be a problem again. |

| #3 GEN. MATTIS also said that Air/MilStrikes alone won't be enough to stop Iran's NucProgs, i.e. stop Iran from becom a de facto NucWeaps Islamist State. Mattis strongly inferred that a ground invasion + occupation of Iran may be needed as a "final option". * IIRC DEMOCRATIC UNDERGOUND > [Global Post]LINDSEY GRAHAM SAYS HE WILL INTRODUCE AN AUTHORIZATION CALLING FOR [US/US-led] USE OF MILITARY FORCE [War] ON IRAN BY SUMMER'S END, i.e. Sept-Oct 2013 iff no progress on Nuc Summit. * FYI 1ST HEADLINES > [Bloomberg] IRAN MAY ACHIEVE NUCLEAR [NucBomb = NucWeapons] BREAKOUT CAPABILITY IN MID-2014. |

| #1 Something about a United States Marine, you just have to admire and respect, oftentimes to the point of awe, reverence, and even tears. |
