......Destroy the SAMs first, then smash the nuke sites......

Iranwatch alert!

[odoso]

Wonderful! Majority of their air defense forces are now centrally located. Talk about your opportunities!

Israel will not be within their nuke missile range immediately, but Iraq, for example, will be. The idea that an Iranian nuke is not a big worry is itself worrisome. You can see the half measures that are going to leave Iran as a nuclear power. And if we don't attack before it can use a nuke, how are we going to attack after? And we say the U.S. will not lead a military effort? Unless Israel is planning to do the job later, I say nuke the nuke sites and do it very soon.

Those UFOs heehee...

[Psalm 73]

"Iran has beefed up its air defenses around various nuclear sites...."

Isn't that why we put nuclear warheads on cruise missles?

[No Blue States]

"Given that the intrusion of enemy aircraft over Iran's airspace is possible, all fighter jets of the country have been ordered by the army chief to shoot them down in the event of sighting them," he was quoted as saying.

Being ordered to do so, and able, are 2 separate things.

India rejected Iran's demand for a radar system pretty much soon after it was requested,about 3-4 months back.

I think they have probably purchased corresponding systems from the Chinese.

[SunkenCiv]

We should thank them -- such a move merely helps confirm the importance of the targets.

[gakrak]

Do they really believe that beefing up their defenses will do any good if we really, really want to knock them out. One fly- bye and there won't be any defenses or nuke program.

[Convert from ECUSA]

All I can say is that the good guys (the US and Israel) better start doing something awfully fast - especially with those Mad Mullah's missiles pointing towared Israel (and some of them likely pointing toward American and British forces in Iraq). This is the time for 1967 and 1981, not 1938.

I dont know what Isreal is worried about. If Iran ever tried to nuke them, wouldnt they also be nuking thier Palestinian Muslim brothers? Last time I checked, nuclear weapons did not have the ability to distinguish between Muslims & Zionists.

[Fitzcarraldo]

I suspect any site we think is a target is a decoy.
