I can see the two countries side by side wanting to have terrorism with nuclear weapons... but I don't think that is going to stop Israel or even the US backing Israel to attack Iran. I think they see all that as too many nukes in one place.

You should change the title some... my first thought was that Joe Lieberman said this.

Other than that... that was certainly the case during the bush years.

This is the same Lieberman from another article in the source:

Lieberman: Right of return makes Arab plan unacceptable
By Barak Ravid, Haaretz Correspondent and The Associated Press
Tags: Barak, Arab peace plan

Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Wednesday his opposition to an Arab peace initiative stemmed from its demand for a "right of return" for Palestinian refugees to Israel proper.

"The clause on the right of return cannot be agreed to," he declared at a cabinet meeting on the government's diplomatic policy.

I think if you want to see something under the circus tents, other than the usual showbiz, you gotta stop watching the clowns....

I also thought it was our dear beloved Senator from CT, but that said, it could as well have come from his mouth--these two Liebermans must have a mind meld.

Although I have started various threads about this extremists, many people still don't seem to know him.

He was born in the Soviet Union (Moldavia), where he worked as bouncer. Later on, he emigrated to Israel where he established the far right political party Yisrael Beiteinu. He's currently minister of foreign affairs after his party achieved a stunning victory during the last elections.

He's consider to be very radical, and for instance said he'd provide the buses for Palestinians whom should be drowned in the dead sea. Additionally, he said the Aswan Dam in Egypt should be bombed.

If 'Zeroknowledge' is online (he is from Israel), he might tell you more about him.

Hebrew University professor Zeev Sternhell, Israel's leading academic specialist on fascism and totalitarianism, has described Lieberman as "perhaps the most dangerous politician in the history of the state of Israel."

Reacting to Lieberman's appointment, the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz said: "The choice of the most unrestrained and irresponsible man around for this job constitutes a strategic threat in its own right. Lieberman's lack of restraint and his unbridled tongue, comparable only to those of Iran's president, are liable to bring disaster down upon the entire region."
