It's unsettling to say the least. More unsettling is the west's continuance to play footsie, appeasing this malevolent regime. This is all to reminding of several decades ago, we know the eventual outcome of this particular placating of that beyond malevolent regime. One doesn't need to read the tea leaves to conclude or predict that history will, ultimately, repeat itself.

This time, however, Israel will be placed in a no win predicament, for its own survival. No win solely because when Israel strikes Iran's nuclear facilities, the entire world will hold it in utter contempt. Many, however, the two-face allies in particular, will suck in stale air with a deep sigh of relief.

As with Germany in the 30's appeasement will come to naught... ironically, the State of Israel is the only country that has the chutzpah and mettle to make certain history does not repeat itself; one doesn't have to question the whys or wherefores. The west, however, continues to shoot itself in the foot employing meaningless, to Iran, sanctions.
