NUKE IRAN? ATLAS MAY SHRUG
Jack is back! Missed him............... he hit 15 countries but is back and in rare form. This is his latest on the tragic ineptitude in handling mullahs with nukes. Dr Jack Wheeler's To the Point, PAID ONLY
NUKE IRAN
Why isn't the world afraid of Jews With Nukes? It's terrified of the prospect of Mullahs With Nukes - but Israel already possess hundreds of nukes andno one freaks out about it.
Least afraid are the Mullahs of Iran and their leader, Mahmoud Ahmadinutjob, who glories in threatening to wipe Israel "off the face of the earth" and arming its enemies like Hezbollah.
The reason they are not afraid and the world is not worried about Jews With Nukes is what philosopher Ayn Rand called The Sanction of the Victim.
She defined this as "the willingness of the good to suffer at the hands of evil."
In other words, Ahmadinutjob is using the moral decency of Israel as a weapon against it. He is betting his country's existence that Jews are too virtuous to do to him what he most desires to do to them. He expects them to be sacrificial victims doomed by their own virtues.
It is now being argued in Israeli halls of power that his assumption should be a fatal mistake. Atlas may be about to shrug in Jerusalem.
Rand's magnum opus, Atlas Shrugged, revolves around the question, what would happen if the victims of evil (the "Atlases" who carry the burden of the world upon their shoulders) no longer permit themselves to be victims, and revoke or shrug off their sanction?
The essence of human morality for Rand is the unwillingness of the good to serve evil, the refusal of the individual person to approve of his being a sacrificial animal. This applies to nations as well.

Can we figure out for a second though what would really happen if say Israel decided to nuke Iran? But I mean this from Israel’s viewpoint. Would Israel be affected by any nuclear fall-out or radiation? I know that Chernobyl was linked to medical and cancer problems 100s and 100s of miles away. Would Israel be affected in the same manner? Perhaps this is what is stopping Israel from doing anything, not some feelings of guilt or inability to do what is necessary.
