Summary:
There is nary an American who is not concerned about a nuclear
Iran. We all recall the 1983 bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut by Iranian
ally Hizbollah, not to mention the continuing Iranian-supported militancy of
Hizbollah. There is more than a suspicion that Iran was behind the bombing of
the AMIA Jewish center in Buenos Aires in 1994. But there is in the world today
an odd confluence of neoconservative hawks and Evangelical Christians in the US
and their Israeli counterparts, all of whom seem eager for confrontation and war.
I worry about Iran, but these folks scare me even more!
