Israel plans nuclear strike on Iran

Israel plans nuclear strike on Iran

This comes as no surprise to me. Iran has threaten Israel several times, and nuclear weapons would give threats like "wiping Israel off the map" very real teeth.

While the US and other larger nations can risk Iran (and N. Korea) having a few small nuclear bombs, Israel can't. A few bombs is all it would take to wipe them out.

The world must stop Iran, peacefully through negotiations or bloodlessly through sanctions, or Israel must stop them by attacking them.

The way I see it, Nuclear Weapons WILL be used in combat again within a few years, either Iran will be the next country to use Nuclear weapons when they attack Israel (directly or by giving the bomb to terrorist who will take it to Israel), or Israel will use them to stop Iran from developing these weapon.

9/11 changed the world for the US, but this will be nothing compared to how it changes when Israel looses a major city. But I'm afraid that's what its going to take for Europe (the "west"
) to wake up and help us deal with Iran.


PajamasMedia sees things a little differently...

First and foremost - one must consider the source of this story. The Sunday Times journalist in question Uzi Mahnaimi, is a controversial figure....If his reporting was accurate, Iranian nuclear facilities would already be a smoking ruin – not once, but multiple times.
still they go on to say that..
But was the story accurate? “Listen, of course Israel has active contingency plans for attacking Iran’s nuclear capabilities. So does the U.S., so does Great Britain, so does any Western power that is thinking straight.
But it might not be as likely as I first thought...(so much for my attempts at predicting middle east events...)
