I'm with scaeagles and Reaver on this one. Its been a balancing act in the M.E., ever since the formation of Israel as a sovereign nation, with the U.S. and the world community trying to keep everyone from killing each other. Not that its done that much good, IMO, but it's "stable" in its own peculiar way.
We are all used to the typical rhetoric we get from the terrorist groups over there, but when the leader of a country does it....
I think Irans' president is trying to provoke Israel in to action, with the hopes that other Muslim countries will join in with them when Israel attacks.
Man, that would not be good. But I think that Israel would be well within its rights to take that statment as a imminent threat, and act accordingly.
