there seem to be a series of dependencies on v1.2.7a like "lokkit" which in turn is a dependecy on "redhat-config-securitylevel-1.1.1-3" should I remove all of these too?
or should I remove iptables without a dependency check # rpm -e --nodeps iptables
-e

You don't need lokkit. "rpm -e lokkit" ;^).. After that, "rpm -e iptables".
"Trust me, I know what I'm doing.." Heheh.. Well, yes : you don't need it !
From some website : "Lokkit is a tool that writes generic firewall configurations based on ..."
You'd better write your own rules so you know what's going on in your packetfilter. I never used Lokkit, don't know anyone who use[s/d] it, don't know how it works, but it's one of the things that I uninstall when I find it.
