*bink bink*.... um... actually they're not afraid of israel in the slightest... they're afraid of big daddy America america standing behind them (and rightly so).
personally i'd love to see America sever all ties with Israel and let them fight it out amongst themselves.. would also take away the excuses they use to want to punish america.. of course that would all be at the price of oil.. so eh.. you have to weigh up how many more 9/11's the oil is worth... eh in 20, 30, 40 years when the oil reserves start to dry up, or they start using more and more renewable energy sources the US will leave Israel to the wolves anyway... oh that is unless is still startegically better to have a long drawn out war so they can sell arms.
of course they could also find another murderous regime to support in the area.. ayatollah, sadam, ariel sharon.........
