Post #348 - Where You Stand Depends on Where You Are SItting

This morning's Washington Post contained (in the Outlook section), three articles that answered the question of what would happen if Israel attacked Iran.  One was written from the perspective of a person in Washington, DC, a second was a dispatch from Tehran, and the third attempted to give the view from Tel Aviv.

The salient conclusion one can draw from all three taken together is that such a strike would be likely to increase the unity and resolve of both Iranians and Israelis, and to leave the United States with no good options.

Here is a link to the pieces:
