PAPER: ISRAEL PLANS NUCLEAR STRIKE ON IRAN

[CT]

About as secret now as Monica Lewinsky was.

Would have been much better had Drudge reported that the attack was a success, with his flasing siren and all. This could queer the deal, especially with the current Israeli leadership.

[COBOL2Java]

"Make it so"

[bnelson44]

Why would Drudge want to blast this all over the Internet?

[pierrem15]

I would think this is more like the beginning of an 'all-in' round at the poker table.

The Israelis just moved a whole lot of chips to the center of the table.

This should cause the non-serious players to fold (like the EU), although the withdrawal may be accompanied by a lot of hysterics.

We'll see who remains seated at the table.

[guinnessman]

I think that was Somalia.

If this is true and, at the present we don't know for sure, I would suggest all who are reading this post reply. Stock up on food items for the next several months, enough to sustain a family for several mos.

As sure as Iran is attacked they will block the oil supplies.
Better now than later, it's a job that will have to be done but, I don't think Israel can do it alone, too much air space.

If the article had read, Israel and, America were doing a joint venture, I would put some stock into it.

Goes with this news today from Ralph Peters, on the appointment of Admiral Fallon to CentCom.

[BallyBill]

I'm sure Israel has "plans" for use of tactical nukes on every country in the region, just like we do.

[maquiladora]

This may have been leaked to the Times by Israel themselves to give Iran a wake up call on just how serious they are.

As for a surprise, Iran cannot defend a huge enrichment complex against a nuclear weapon, it doesn't matter if they know it's coming or not - the result is going to be the same.

[Earthdweller]

Hype mania.

[westmichman]

Iran could block oil supply for maybe a couple days.

[maquiladora]

Why would Drudge want to blast this all over the Internet?

It's going to be the front page story of the Sunday Times, it's going to get blasted all over the internet in a few hours anyway - he just stole their thunder.

Pinging Israel news list

I think it go to press later on tonight just surf that wire

[Normal4me]

Global warming is really going to happen now!

"British media sources tell DRUDGE"

Oh, so that's what the kooky "secret" announcement is all about: yet another effort to take Iran's attention off of England.

[mystery-ak]

Is this why we are moving 2 aircraft carriers to the Gulf?

[Doohickey]

That was Somalia. Either way, it was sick.

[johnny7]

Heads up to all you leftist, human shields out there!

No

The Iranian leadership does not think like this. They are true believers. Islamofascists don't believe the United States or Israel have the courage to fight an all out war. They already know the Europeans do not. Therefore they believe they will inherit the earth by being more willing to take casualties than we are to inflict them.

Call it a game of Chicken. They do not believe anyone is willing to inflict millions of casualties to stop them from developing nuclear weapons.
