ARTICLE: Iran and Israel Already at (Cold) War, By Frida Ghitis, World Politics Review, 21 Jan 2010

Nice overview of the Cold War-ish tit-for-tatting going on between Israel and Iran. The dynamic fits very nicely with my projected trajectory of seeing the region's nuclear powers (eventually Iran plus Turkey plus Saudi Arabia joining Israel) head toward a detente-like strategic talks agenda.

After some learning curve incidents sure to spook us plenty.
