How?
Which Middle East enemies will Israel be able to overfly to deliver an attack?
On 2nd thought, lets assume they get a pass flying to Iran since most of Iran's neighbors
wouldn't mind having Iran's nuke program whacked.
But the return trip home would also have to overfly enemies.
Bet those enemies would then try to take out Israels aircraft.
A face saving gesture on their part.
Your thoughts?
Hey great question, but Israel has already done this once flying 1000km over the desert there and back to take out the nuclear reactors, and if hostile countries try to take out Israel's aircraft then so be it. Last time Israel took on the entire Arab world it only took them 6 days to clean house!
I have no doubt that if the fate of their country was on the line that the IAF would have no hesitation about launching a one way strike, wheter it be a nuclear Dolittle raid or a truly one-way trip.
" But the return trip home would also have to overfly enemies."
They can get there through Jordan and Iraq. Iraqi airspace is currently controlled by Americans and an arrangement would be possible there. Jordan would be a possibility too, in my opinion.
