OOPS BIG mistake.

[cripplecreek]

But that's not fair, the worlds media has already declared that George Bush will start WWIII.

I thought Ronald Reagan already did that. [scratching head]

[spyone]

What a bloody madman!

[RightWhale]

Isn't this a repeat of what was said 3-4 years ago?

[ml1954]

One of Iran’s most influential ruling cleric called Friday on the Muslim states to use nuclear weapon against Israel, assuring them that while such an attack would annihilate Israel, it would cost them "damages only".

So much for the deterrence strategy. Now Israel's A-bomb manufacturing will move into high gear.

This Islaminut needs a demonstration of what could happen with conventional stuff to get an idea of what could happen with nuclear stuff.

[wagglebee]

Some people are just plain suicidal!

I would not expect Israel to leave Iran's nuclear program in tact much longer. It is only a matter of months before Israeli planes attack -- with full backing of the US.

[muawiyah]

Somewhere there is a targeting plan that minimizes fallout in the more fertile areas, not damaging the oil fields, and yet exterminating virtually the entire population of Iran.

So, who would have such a plan? Would it be Russia, or maybe France? Hmmmm?

Could be the US or Israel, or UK maybe. Or, possibly Pakistan or India. Maybe North Korea peddles missiles to these guys in order to infiltrate spies to bring back information necessary to the carving up of this future People's Republic's province.

The possibilities are endless. All that anyone needs is some sort of pretext.

Looks like the pretext is there, eh?!

[nuke rocketeer]

There will be damage to the islamofascist world alright! Mecca will be an uninhabitable glass bowl as will be Tehran and most of Iran. Medina, Damascus, and the Aswan high dam will probably be nailed.

[glock rocks]

World's largest parking lot. I suppose they think Jimmy Carter's still running things. Could get hot.

[Banjoguy]

IMO, this is a mortal threat. Israel would be perfectly justified in a mounting an all out pre-emptive nuclear strike against these medieval madmen. And if that should happen, we should join them.

[Dark Skies]

This was hot news!!!!!!!!

In 2001. But I guess it is still germaine.

[WritableSpace]

Thats right kill the Jews, and the destroy all of some of the most holiest of sites for the Judeo-Christian religions.

Do this and the US Nuke Bombs Mecca.

[NorCalRepub]

they would become the biggest sand lot in the world.... and the guy thinks they will only suffer minor damages. He and Kim Jong Il drink from the same poisened cup

[Spok]

Do these guys WANT a visit from the IDF???

[beaversmom]

Whoever starts it, it will be George Bush's fault. Iran, George Bush, North Korea, George Bush. China, George Bush.

[Cinnamon]

does this dumb a... know Israel has nuclear weapons as a last resort?

[glock rocks]

Somewhere there is a targeting plan that minimizes fallout in the more fertile areas, not damaging the oil fields, and yet exterminating virtually the entire population of Iran.

There are quite a few good people in Iran. That would be a very bad idea.
