Are TEFLERS in the Midddle East apprehensive about the possibility of a joint US/Israel attack on Iran? I�m not sure it�s going to happen but wouldn�t like to be in Kuwait or Saudi Arabia if it does. Mad dinner jacket has said allies of the Satans will be punished. What do you think?

Dear veiledsentiments,

"Cons" is SUCH as appropriate shortening, though, isn't it? Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy.

Regards,

Our American cousins really should have listened to that advice from Ike about the Military Industrial Complex. And our own dear masters in London should have stuck to Harold Wilsons decision to withdraw doe "East of Suez"
