A retired Israeli general is cautioning Israel not to attack Iran directly.Retired Maj. Gen. Giora Eiland spoke to ABC News about possible Israeli responses.

Here is the money quote:

"However, Eiland said a direct military strike against Iran would risk sparking "a real cycle of violence" between Israel and Iran that would endanger the entire region."

Yeah; that's a real cause for concern! Iran will be just fine if Israel simply pretends they didn't attack them!

We live in a world governed by the very stupidest of people. How did this two watt bulb ever become a general in the IDF?

It is by ignoring violence that one encourages it. That is statecraft 101; you must respond in kind when attacked. Anything less signals weakness and invites more attacks.

I don't know how the droolcup set has taken all positions of authority in this world but they seem to have done so quite effectively. This is what happens when you let Progressives teach a whole generation their values.
