Iran's devastating achievement creates its own regional balancing act
This story writes itself.
Elliott Abrams in the WSJ noting how both US and Israeli relationships with Arab neighbors of Iran are much improved with each step Tehran takes toward nuclear weapons capacity:
Who will stop the Iranian nuclear weapons program, the Arabs wonder; they place no faith in endless negotiations between earnest Western diplomats and the clever Persians.
Israel is the enemy of their enemy, Iran. Now, the usual description of Arab-Israeli relations as "hostile" or "belligerent" is giving way to a more complex picture.
Once begun, the Big Bang is never done. We topple the Taliban and Saddam, and Iran must reach for protection. That protection creates its own backlash, and so it goes. No going back. The speeding up of history: speeding the killing, speeding the threats, speeding up the dynamics. Top-down solutions emerging after decades of wasted bottom-up efforts to forge the perfect peace plan. Nukes clarify the mind all right.
And we are all better off for that scary journey.

There has to be responsibility of everyone in the preservation of peace. And in this issue deal with the Iranian nuclear program, not with threats, bluster instigation, and with lies, much less that will address the issue. For some fools who want to ignite the conflict issue, to establish reasons for claiming fictitious apparent reason, and disguise the real reason to take advantage of the situation - and it's not - the thing must be done in a balanced way to reach a common consensus and always use common sense, not with brute force as some crazy arsonist thinking to solve everything at the base of the armed struggle.
It would be very irresponsible dare frenzied attack of some kind against Iran, which could cause an international catastrophe of unforeseeable consequences.
And unfounded accusations and without consistency against Iran is not the way to peace and, likewise, will not succeed for the cessation of hostilities. The IAEA is a United Nations bodies, should also have their share of responsibility, and should always be at the service of preserving peace in the world.
However, when it comes to Israel, who seems unwilling to engage in peace, and has no morals, because Israel has nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction and, moreover, this state does not meet even the resolutions of the United Nations, much less consider the International Community and the free world. And when it comes to Israel are not made sanctions or restrictive measures; settlements that Israel is illegal and provocative measures in Palestinian territory, contrary to the International Community.
Why we often think of our defence when some one threats us this is a big question to spiritualist why we are making a race with people like us who eat like us sleep like us and drink like us.
