The Other Side: Why Israel SHOULD stop Iran from getting "the bomb"

Earlier, last week, I argued that I thought there was an analogy between the US / USSR nuclear show down in the 1960s and the Israel /Iran nuclear show down today.  I did say that i would entertain arguments to the contrary
.
Funny enough.
.
Well, there is the alternative argument, not Israel v Iran, but US v. Pakistan, made in Foreign Policy the other day.
.
I am still not buying it as more than fear mongering (otherwise we live in constant fear), but in fairness I thought I should reference it.  The article is very good, very scary and easily applicable to Israel with Islamic fanatics hate as much as the US - and is a lot easier to hit.
