ARTICLE: Obama's atomic umbrella: U.S. nuclear strike if Iran nukes Israel, By Aluf Benn, Haaretz, 11/12/2008
The historically proven answer, based on decades protecting Europe from a far more overwhelming nuke danger.
For now, Israel's nuke advantage is about 200 to zero, but no matter. we know how to deter with the promise of massive retaliation leading to a nation's obliteration.
And it's a believable threat because we've done it (drop the bomb) before.
Plus, we'd get away with liquidating Iran if they tried to torch Israel.
We'd get away with it completely.
Good to see on Obama's part. We are finally getting some realism on this subject.
