It is becoming clear that the U.S. is going to be heavily involved in the war in the Middle East, and it is becoming clear that this is going to mean a direct confrontation with Iran.  Are you ready for that?  Are any of us really ready for such an apocalyptic scenario?  Hamas and Hezbollah wouldn’t be anything without funding and arms from Iran.  So Iran is the “big dog” that is ultimately responsible for all of the terrorism.  On the other side, the U.S. is the “big dog” that funds and supports Israel.  In the end, it was probably inevitable that the two “big dogs” would tangle eventually.
