05-06-07 - 'Realists' Gain Bush's Ear, to Cheney's Chagrin Cheney, the leader of the administration's hawks, had publicly condemned Pelosi's visit to Damascus as "bad behavior," while some of his neoconservative allies outside the administration even called for her prosecution under a 200-year-old law that makes it a crime for individual citizens to communicate with hostile foreign governments to influence their behavior

Thus do we arrive at the real heart of the matter with respect to Iran's nuclear program: Israel fears not for its very existence, but rather, Israel fears that it will no longer be able to keep hold of unlawfully occupied and colonized Arab territories. Israel fears that it no longer will be able to call the shots, and thus will no longer be allowed to be the neighborhood bully. God forbid that they have to comply with the law (get out of occupied land). The horror. All of this talk about it being 1938 all over again, with the rise of a new Hitler is Orwellian-speak. It's Orwellian when the accuser is itself practicing some of Hitler's policies and similar views of supremacy.
