Israel and the United States have agreed to appoint two working committees in order to hone a joint strategy against Iran's nuclear ambitions, public radio reported on Friday.

Deputy Prime Minister Shaul Mofaz headed discussions on the matter in the United States this week, it said.

One committee will deal with intelligence on Iran's nuclear drive and the other with international sanctions, the chief weapon in an effort to convince Tehran to halt uranium enrichment.

The next formal discussions between Israeli and US officials on Iran will be in two months in Israel, the radio station reported.

On Thursday, Mofaz called for Mohamed ElBaradei to be removed as head of UN nuclear watchdog the International Atomic Energy Agency, saying he had turned a blind eye to Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Public radio quoted unnamed Israeli officials as saying the Mofaz delegation to Washington fed precise intelligence to the United States, alluding to satellite photographs.

to bring back Jesus... I ain't shitting you.

If all but 300,000 Jews don't die and the last remaining ones don't convert... Jesus doesn't come back

3. Maybe people should look at a map.

This is so obvious, someone other than myself must have taken note of the fact that Israel is but a postage stamp on the great big ass of the entire Middle East? For crying-out-loud, Iran would be releasing fallout across a dozen different countries, not to mention the Palestine people. Anyone that takes a look would know they could never drop a bomb there. For fucks sack, they oughta pass a law that says you have to have a map behind every newscast.

5. The Iranians would not... or at least I don't expect them to

But even if they did... lets play along shall we?

What do you think the Israeli response will be before it becomes glass?

The Samsom Plan... Israel is known to have anywhere from 300 to 400 nukes... where do think they are targetted at?

Yep, there will be many mushrooms growing in the desert, and not because a nice rain.
