| Israel's Future and Iran's Nuclear Program
Weiss, Leonard
Middle East Policy Journal, Fall 2009, v16, #3, pp79-89
The author argues that "characterizing Iran's nuclear program as an "existential threat" to Israel is an attempt to obtain support for sanctions and/or military action against Iran by conflating the physical destruction of Israel by a surprise nuclear attack, which Washington should actively work to prevent, with the demographic threats to the Zionist project, which the United States is under no obligation to alleviate."
