I agree with the Supreme Court that there are rights not listed in the Constitution, privacy being one. But the right to privacy does not trump the right to life, even if we are not sure there is a "person." I can't murder babies in the "privacy" of my home. I certainly don't want to look in the 'private' parts of a woman. But it is the woman who is hiring a doctor to go in to that 'private' place and destroy what might be a person. Such actions violate the civil rights of the person and such possible persons should be protected by the Commerce Clause of the Constitution.
Of course, Israel has the ability to nuke all enemies in the region, they've had years to prepare. The only question is, which is worse, small strike at Iran, nuke Iran, or just get it all over with? Once nukes are used, all bets are off and there would be no stopping the reply, in time. So, do you get it over with, or do another Iraq? Problem is, the small Iraq style attack may no longer be practical. So long as Iran survives, they'd just get madder and crazier, especially if wounded. There's an example from Roman history, the Romans were humiliated... and allowed to recover. The reason for all the trial balloons from Israel in the press has been to try and judge the world and regional reaction to the various choices.
