In Iran, Arming for Armageddon
(Washington Post) Charles Krauthammer - Holocaust denial and calls for Israel's destruction are commonplace in the Middle East.

Everyone knows where Iran's nuclear weapons will be aimed. And everyone knows that if the button is ever pushed, it will be the end of Israel.
