The IDF kicked Egyptian ass so bad they've walked funny ever since. The Tuts have never gotten over the shame of their soldiers removing their boots to run away faster in '56; if not for Ike, the Israelis would probably still be in the Sinai. What was that war over?

What I'm saying is, the Israelis don't take a lot of crap off anyone, and the only reason they've been so tolerant of late is because we've had White Houses with whom they were amenable.

They know Iran for what she is-Israel's abject enemy.

Now, they're to be rebuked and stranded by their former ally, and they don't give a flip what Obama may think, IMO.
