The Middle East is getting ready just in case Israel tries something stupid. McCain had agreed to support Israel bombing Iran while using Iraq land, if he got in office. Now Israel is a problem as they can't use Obama/Biden like they used Bush/Cheney. Notice the names of the biggest crooks caught lately. Hiint Madoff and Toussie check their associations with Israel.
