Here is an article by Judith Klinghoffer.   I think Joe Biden knows that the lovely Iranian president Ahmadinejad is no fool,  if the Iranian govt. were to be as crazy to lob a nuke at Israel, it would be suicide for Iran. I don't think anyone has to worry about that ever happenning.  But they wouldn't hesitate to provide one to terrorists, if they did and it was sparked up, they would be caught and would suufer the same consequences, nuclear material is traceable like fingerprints.

As a side note Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice is meeting with Libya today the first time high level communication in 50 years with Libya, I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that one. Condi and Qaddafi having lunch,  I guess Muammar wants to make nice, this has historical significance.

BIDEN TRUMPS AHMADINEJAD By Judith A. Klinghoffer( bio)

Ahmadinejad has been telling anyone who would listen that Iran is going to go nuclear and there is nothing the US can do about it. Biden went further. He told Israeli officials that there is nothing Israel can do about it. Leftist Israel daily Haaretz reported:

Democratic vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden was quoted Monday as telling senior Israeli officials behind closed doors that the Jewish state will have to reconcile itself to a nuclear Iran.In the unsourced report, Army Radio also quoted Biden as saying that he opposed "opening a additional military and diplomatic front." . . . Army Radio said Israeli officials expressed "amazement" over the remarks attributed to him. " Israel will have to reconcile itself with the nuclearization of Iran," Army Radio quoted Biden as telling the unnamed officials. " It's doubtful if the economic sanctions will be effective, and I am against opening an additional military and diplomatic front." Biden denies the story but it reads like vintage Biden to me. As a senator he was merely doing what comes naturally, bloviating. As the man who is supposed to teach Obama about foreign policy, these views are scary. Barry Rubin explains:

The real problem is if a nuclear Iran would reconcile itself to Israel's existence. And also let me urge the following talking points on you when you write/talk about a nuclear Iran. Even if people don't care whether Israel is wiped off the map they should consider these points: 1. A nuclear Iran will make it impossible for the West to protect its interests in the Middle East. All countries would be too intimidated to act in any way contrary to Iran's desires. 2. A nuclear Iran would intimidate all Arab regimes to appease Iran including, for example, rejecting Western basing rights or alliances. 3. A nuclear Iran would lead to a huge upsurge in radical Islamist movements and their recruiting. With hundreds of thousands of Muslims joining such groups, the existence of every Arab regime would be jeopardized; terrorism and regional instability would rise. 4. The price of oil, given understandable fears of regional stability, would go far higher than it is now and stay there for years. Senator Biden–are you reconciled to all that happening? I will take the liberty of answering for him: No, publicly. Yes, privately.

Everybody from Ahmadinejad to Putin to Western appeasers and declinists understand as much. That is the reason they are so enthusiastic about an Obama/Biden ticket.
