A senior Iranian military official quoted by the London-based al-Shark al-Awsat Arabic newspaper is quoted as saying Iran has supplied Hizbullah with thousands of longer-range rockets, rockets capable of striking deeper into Central Israel.
The report states that Iran is threatening that if Israel continues the ongoing military assault in Lebanon, the rockets, some with a 150 kilometer (90 mile) range, will be fired into Israel.
The senior Iranian official also stated that dozens of Iranian experts are working in Lebanon with Hizbullah to enable them to successfully fire the rockets against Israel.

One nuke on Tehran would change a lot of tunes.

Iran doesn't know what it's doing, provoking Israel and the US, beyond a point, where there will be a severe response.

There is one bad-a$$ war coming. Iran just escalated this beyond the insane. The whole stinking middle east is about to go up in flames.
(not that that's a particularly bad thing...)

There is no doubt Iran is heavily involved in the attacks upon Israel. Israel is prepared for all contingencies, including the prospect Hezbollah will fire longer ranger rockets that can reach Tel Aviv and Jerusalem and will respond accordingly.
(The Palestinian terrorist regime is the crisis and Israel's fist is the answer.)

This post actually scares me.
Now Israel has a public statement of proof of Iranian meddling. It legitimizes action against Iran. And we know how Israel doesn't give a rip about what the world thinks (since the default mode is hatred anyway)
Hang on for the ride.

Oh, but that is the point! Iran wants an all out war, THE APOCOLYPS and the return of the Mahdi. It's their own weird version of "THE RAPTURE".

There must be a telepathy. You "stole" my very thought. Besides, why should there be an iran?

An act of war, but anyone shocked by it has probably been living in a cave listening to NPR all this time. It is quite another thing to admit it in public, however.

If this is true, I fear you are right.
There will be a draft if this war becomes such that the U.S. gets involved.

aside from this , we all know Iran is the secret hand keeping
things white hot in Iraq , always instigating the Shia , running lots of agents into Iraq , much higher grade of IED's , all resulting in increasing US deaths.
When is it time for serious payback for these cretins?
How many years have we Americans taken this bull from Iran?
Forget Israel! We have enough justification ourselves to send them to hell. And we should....I hope we do !

Time to cut out the middle men (boys) and let Israel take on Iran.

Oh for the wailing and gnashing of teeth from the bleeding heart liberals that would bring about. I'd be on a plane first thing in the morning.
