The Associated Press reports that the Israeli government has ordered its citizens to get out of Gaza and the Sinai Peninsula ASAP. A shipment of Scud missiles to the Hezbollah has heightened what is already a tense situation. Add to that the rude reception that Prime Minister Netanyahu received from President Obama, the Americans' refusal to sell or give Israel any bunker-busting bombs, plus the lack of any action against the Iranian nuclear program, and you have the elements of another Mideast crisis.
UPDATE: Michael Ledeen of Pajamas Media wonders out loud whether Iran could produce a nuke earlier than expected, maybe in as little as a month. To be honest, it is difficult to speculate about such a secretive regime.
