Why Israel will strike Iran ... and soon! Iran is currently trying to start their nuclear power plant in Bushehr by the autumn according to the Russian nuclear agency chief Sergei Kiriyenko. If this reactor is online and running...then Israel will not be able to destroy it without causing a huge fallout. In 1981, when Begin destroyed the reactor in Iraq -- his reasoning to Ronald Reagan (according to Ronald Reagan Diaries) was the fact it needed to be destroyed before they received plutonium from the French. Begin was concerned of a radiation being spread across into Baghdad. So the key to when Israel will strike ... is how close are they to starting the reactor in Bushehr.

According to Paul Leventhal of the Nuclear Control Institute, if Iran were to withdraw from the Nonproliferation Treaty and renounce the agreement with Russia, the Bushehr reactor could produce a quarter ton of plutonium per year, which Leventhal says is enough for at least 30 atomic bombs.

We may as well assist the Israelis in atacking Iran, as we’ll be blamed for it anyhow, by everyone. With our help and some bunker busters, we should be able to get almost everything. RPVs, B-1s, B-2s, B-52s, F15s, F-16s, Naval Air, cruise missiles, etc ought to do the trick, along with the IDF.

“If I were an Israeli I wouldn’t wait,” the Pentagon official added.

I'm sensing a lack of confidence. Obama is against space weapons, guns, gun shows, nuclear weapons, fissile materials, etc., but I know he's for wind power and solar power and anything that isn't nuclear or petroleum based and Harry Reid says that petroleum makes us sick. Obama can even lower the sea level and make us all start caring for the sick and we can learn new languages like the Europeans. Doesn't that count for something?

It’s been all talk thus far, and that’s all I think it will be.
