The global political situation changes so fast! We were always taught to analyse the middle-east within a dual regional superpower framework. But I suspect that Iran shares Israel's concerns. The area seems to be out of control.

i can understand GG taking the lazy political option, it's an opportunity to make the seat his very own for ever! But one does want to get hold of him and shout, "What? All Israelis?"
