if israel does this, the world is more likely to assemble an invasion force to teach israel a lesson. btw, i think i read a story sorta like that in some really old book.

It won't matter. The world is too cowardly to defend or attack Israel

The bigger question is what will the US do if such a force is assembled? Amen.

As soon as Iran has nukes, it will happily threaten to lob them into Tel Aviv. No muslim despot will tolerate the existence of the state of Israel at its doorstep. That will never change until the muslim world is democratized. And that will take a long time and cost alot in blood.

It matters very much as the playing field has drastically changed since Israel first bombed Irans reactor.

Biggest of all is Iran's allies. Needless to say that they'd have full backing of the muslim world, they now have Russia, seeking to become a superpower again, and N. Korea run by a madman, all solidly behind Iran.

This coupled with the fact that anti-semetic Europe could care a less about Israel and they all hate Israels closest allie, US.

They have never bombed Iran's reactors. You confuse Iran with Iraq unless I was asleep for several years.

I believe the current riots in France is a "warning shot across the bow" for what awaits if europe puts the screws to Iran.

If Israel attacked Iran, the riots would spread all across Europe.

Time for western civilization to fish or cut bait!

The response by diplomats in public would be "We condemn this act" but the private response would be something akin to "Thank God!" The reason is simple: most of the world is worried that a nuclear-armed Iran would not hestitate to use its weapons against Israel.

gakrak, as i recall, this really old book said all the nations on earth would assemble to punish israel with vast armies, my take was that would include the usa.
