You know what would be almost as bad for Israel as a nuclear Iran? The US & co. bombing the shit out of Iran and watching the oil pipelines end up like Iraq's. I could see Israel pre-empting that strike in order to preserve their oil connection, but the chances of Israel getting tipped off to a strike with any time to act, is pretty fucking slim. I would be shocked if Olmert ordered that kind of strike, but I do think he's easily influenced, and acts to appease whoever screams loudest.
