[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is madness 
I really hope America will not be dragged into this [/quote]

I hope otherwise, as U.S power would end the conflict even more rapidly, saving lives and bringing about much needed regime change in Iran.  A lack of commitment has resulted in Iran steadily working towards a nuclear weapon - it's time for decisive and definitive action to eliminate the mullahs and their insane theocratic, antidemocratic and antisemitic regime once and for all.

What conflict?
Whatever it is, it is not our problem 
Regime change will leave a power vacuum and will not result in a democratically elected president friendly to the US or Israel.

Most likely other Arab nations will also be drawn into the conflict.

Does Israel really want to gamble like this?

There's no gamble.  The Iranian people in general don't support the authoritarian theocratic government they have now, so any replacement is more likely to resemble something more democratic and tolerant.  The surrounding Arab states for the most part want nothing to do with excessive religious extremism which can destabilize their own governments, so they're certainly not going to weigh in on the side of Iran.  They've been on the sidelines throughout the Israeli Palestinian conflict for good reason - they learned that engaging militarily against Israel inevitably ended badly.  Further, they discover that if they leave Israel alone in peace, Israel in turn leaves them along in peace - what a shocker!  [/quote]
