The Israelis do not have the capability to do this. I wish they did but it is up to us. If I am not mistaken, the Israelis have submarines capable of launching cruise missles.
They do not have to fly over Iraq to attack Iran.

I will look on the net but I do not think they have submarines with this capability. They do have land based missiles but I do not know what the accuracy factor is with them. More likely the Israeli Navy has some surface ships with that capability.
Do they have enough missiles and platforms from sea. I tend to doubt it.

I stand corrected they apparently do have the capability of submarine based cruise missiles. Do they have enough of them is another question ?
Cruise missiles are slow and can be be shot down but it is interesting. I do not think they would pack enough payload to do the job conventionally.
