The anti Semites among your readers should know the bad news. There are 33 members of Congress who are Jews, including 13 U.S. Senators which is a far larger impact than AIPAC. Thinking that absolute dictatorships on the border of Iraq will assist in the establishment of a successful democracy on their border is only wishful thinking. The target of all the Arab nations is Israel and Iran is trying to outdo them in their hatred. These arms are a minor gesture since the deal is over a period of 10 years. However, Israel needs to take off the kid gloves very soon. Iran has many targets other than the nuclear facilities. I recommend that Israel target Qom as a bargaining chip.
