a good read (new book) RAID ON THE SUN
From the earliest days of his dictatorship, Saddam Hussein had vowed to destroy Israel. So, when France sold Iraq a top-of-the-line nuclear reactor in 1975, the Israelis were justifiably concerned—especially when they discovered that Iraqi scientists had already formulated a secret program to extract weapon-grade plutonium from the reactor, a first critical step in creating an atomic bomb. The reactor formed the heart of a huge nuclear plant situated twelve miles from Baghdad, 1,100 kilometers from Tel Aviv. By 1981, the reactor was on the verge of becoming “hot,” and Israeli Prime Minister Begin knew he would have to confront its deadly potential. He turned to Israeli Air Force commander General David Ivry to secretly plan a daring surgical air strike on the reactor—a never-before contemplated mission that would prove to be one of the most remarkable military operations of all time.
Written with the full and exclusive cooperation of the Israeli Air Force high command, General Ivry (ret.), and all of the eight mission pilots (including Ilan Ramon, who became Israel’s first astronaut and tragically perished in the shuttle Columbia disaster), Raid On the Sun tells the extraordinary story of how Israel plotted the unthinkable: defying its U.S. and European allies to eliminate Iraq’s nuclear threat. In the tradition of Black Hawk Down, journalist Rodger Claire re-creates a gripping tale of personal sacrifice and survival, of young pilots who trained in America on the then-new, radically sophisticated F-16 fighter-bombers, then faced a nearly insurmountable challenge: how to fly the 1,000-plus-kilometer mission to Baghdad and back on one tank of fuel; he recounts Israeli intelligence’s incredible “black ops” to sabotage construction on the French reactor and eliminate Iraqi nuclear scientists; and he gives reader a pilot's-eye view of the action on June 7, 1981, when the planes roared off a runway on the Sinai Peninsula for the first successful destruction of a nuclear reactor in history.
Refueling? I don't think the Israelis have long range bombers or refueling capability. I can see the USAF providing refueling over Iraq on the QT and let the Israelis do the heavy lifting.
For Israel
nuclear weapons in Iran are far more intolerable
than missiles in Cuba were
for the USA.
The Kennedy administration risked nuclear war to get them out.
Israel will stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons
regardless of the consequences.
Period.
If Osama is hiding out in Iran, hope they get him too.
This will happen November 3rd and not a day sooner.
I have been advocating an Israeli strike on Iran for many years. However, Israel has been making diplomatic attempts to get Russia to cease its help on the project and she too tried to get the World body to act. Six years later, the World still has not awakened to the threat from Iran. Israel, must act immediately to survive. Someone high up in the Israeli government has already stated that by November it is a point of no return for Iran's nuclear program. An October surprise? I pray YES.
Ooooo, just got chills reading that headline. Do it! Do it! Do it!
