Yuval, you remind me of certain publicly funded antipoverty organizations back in Brooklyn. Their members were forever railing against the "white power structure". But they had nothing against the white taxpayer. Let Israel refuse ALL direct aid from the US government, military and civilian, then it truly can go its own way and Washington can't say a thing. PS: Even the wildly pro-Likud website **Debkafile** concedes that taking out Iran's nuclear sites would be extremely difficult and would undoubtedly bring retaliation in many forms against both Israel and Western interests in the region.
