will israel go in or will they bottle it?
Quoting: ochayethenoo They are going in. You don't call up 75,000 reservists for no reason. Quoting: Burt Gummer Bingo. The people who argue that the Israelis won't go in remind me a lot of a woman I was dating about ten years ago, around the time of the second Gulf War. She insisted that the US, UK and France had only massed 250,000 troops on Iraq's borders to scare Saddam into complying with their demands. I tried to explain to her that massing 250,000 troops on anyone's border is a massive logistical exercise, to say nothing of time-consuming and very expensive. It's not something you do on the strength of a half-baked notion that you can scare an enemy into cooperating with a show of force. But no. She didn't get it. Well, we all know what happened after all those troops were arrayed along the Kuwait-Iraq border, don't we?
