What would you do? Would you choose to survive despite the pressure from your "friends" and the threat from your neighbors to "wipe you off the map"?
Israel is one of the few small nations, unlike South Korea and Japan and Taiwan who are also threatened by insane neighbors, that actually has the capacity to respond forcefully in the face of no help from the big boys. The others are potential victims of the lack of spine growing in their supposed friends.
How long will it be before Israel goes rogue and wipes out the nuclear capacity of Iran, starting a war with all the Muslims in the area? And what will Obama's response be, other than a photo-op "condemning" the action, like he did with North Korea's atomic bomb test? Obama will likely do nothing, because he will be confused that his massive popularity hasn't automatically solved the issue (he is already confused that his great speeches to the Muslims didn't sway Ahmadinejad to behave himself). But likely his teleprompter will produce another great speech.
Addendum
This quote, found at Le*gal In*sur*rec*tion:
“This people, small as it is, surrounded as it is by enemies, has decided to live. And if we have to pay the price for living, we have to pay it. This is not a people that can give in.” (Golda Meir)
