I think so too but what are the cababilities of the Popeye Turbo cruise missile, no one knows but the Israelis. Max range ive found is 1500km for the sub launched version. Can they do the same from the air is a mystery. Thats why i was suggesting launching them from above Syria. That would enable hitting all targets of value, though you can hit some from just Israel. I would like to know if they have any subs on the Indian Ocean at the moment, that would be a good place to launch. EDIT And i think they are allready expecting a strike at anytime, so you have to plan from that they are at full alert.

To Avon Lady

1) I don't file a U.S. tax return.

2) Refering to the taxes being so high that we pay are............our property taxes............not our income tax, although now that you mention it.............those taxes are high as well. In Canada we have a double tax on all goods and services. In Ontario you not only pay for the provincial sales tax but also the federal sales tax.

3) Right on, no one wants another war...........or the cost of paying for it. Good point made Avon Lady.

4) The quote " All you worry about is subsidising Israels military". I have an idea. Let's reverse the role here. Let Israel subsidise the U.S. and Canadian military for a while instead. That sounds fare.

Our tax bill here is now $4000 for an average 3 bedroom home. Other services such as water/sewage/building, etc. are charged over and above the property taxes.

We have 4 levels of government in this area. Township Government, Regional Government, Provincial Government and Federal Government.

As for our income tax in this area. My wife pays more than 1/2 of her gross pay towards income tax just to give you an idea how high taxes really are.

On some of our bills we pay tax on the tax...........go figure!!!!!!
.............and on other bills we pay tax on the provincial debt incurred by the company providing the services.........crazy.

..............and we want to pay for another war? :hmm: NUTS.

This all sums up to the erosion (undermining) of the working middle class. However, it's the working middle class that supports the country.........the government has yet to figure that one out. The government will figure this out after they undermined the working middle class right out of the country............leaving the poor and the wealthy.............but that will be too late.

Israel has a right to defend herself... so if they really feel the need to do something, then they are free to do so.

Personally, I think it would be a strategic error to attack Iran...

however, none of this really has anything to do with the UK, and we are overstreched in Iraq and AFghanistan as it is.

If there is a pre-emptive war against Iran, I hope the UK is not involved... will just mess up politics at home, be costly and disruptive, and reduce our standing in the world.

We face a terror threat, a threat that can only be defeated with wide-spread international consensus and co-operation. The Iraq war damanged that international co-operation, and an attack on Iran would only furhter damage that co-operation.

We need to be making partners and allies in the war on terror, not futher isolating ourselves...
