WASH. POST COLUMNIST SCAPEGOATS ISRAEL FOR IRAN'S NUCLEAR OBSESSIONS

Ben Shapiro points to a Wash. Post writer named Max Fisher who's taking the classic blame-game route (via Big Journalism):

Fisher calls Israel’s development of nuclear arms a move based on “obsessive fear,” not on reasonable self-interest. He also writes that today, since Israel has conventional arms superiority, it might as well give up the nuclear program. “Israel's conventional military forces are now far more powerful than all of its neighbors' militaries combined. Anyway, those neighbors have made peace with Israel save Syria, which has held out mostly for political reasons.”

Wow, it's always just fear factor that drives us and not a wish to live safely without evil belief systems to make living dangerous. Fisher should be ashamed of himself, and I'm glad Shapiro brought this to our attention.
