Consensus That Israel's Security Requires Defense by Free Societies

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Oct 13, 2021 at 18:13

Consensus of Reader Prashant's comments indicates that Israel would have a better sense of freedom to exist in a world that has Israel's best interests at heart if those nations that have their own rules of a free society would be better served and protected from Muslim proclivities of influences in migratory infusions around the world if they project those rules of a free society towards Israel. Of course, as Reader Prashant notes, the greatest threat from the Iranian Islamic Regime and its like-minded other antagonists towards diminishing, then extinguishing with extreme prejudice, the State of Israel, has inconsistent support, even from the 46th American Administration's own divergent departments of state and 'foreign policy' experts; and this is the heart of the matter. Even as we read elsewhere that 'discussions' of the Regime's nuclear ambitions are (or maybe more correctly, current expectations of readiness are nearing completion, depending on whom one wants to believe) possibly at some state of conceding to the Regime's unwillingness to pause their nuclear developments, is this contention at a place where other 'states' feel safe if it were not true? Somehow, this expectation does not ring true, but who is ready to tackle the consequences if the worst case scenario of a nuclear tipped Iranian Islamic Regime removes the curtain of secrecy with overt demands that Israel capitulate; and Israel refuses?
