If Israel bombs Iran, the US will be blamed for it. How GOOD is this for the US troops in Iraq and our mission there? What impact will this have on US interests in the region? On world oil supplies and the price of oil? On our economy?
Rationale for the US to help. Better that the US helps, thus tipping the operation to being more successful, than Israel going at it alone, and it not being as successful. The other aspect is what Syria/Terrorist groups do in both those cases... quite a mess!
I AM SURE OIL PRICES WILL FALL AND THE DOW JUMP WHEN IRAN HAS/USES NUKES. WHO WILL BE BLAMED FOR THAT? THE US ANYWAY SO I SAY LET THEM BLAME US FOR THE NON NUCLEAR OPTION.
I'd say it would have less of an effect than if Iran destroyed the ENTIRE state of Israel with a nuclear bomb.
If Israel attacks the Iranian reactor, there is a good chance that Iran will not do anything in response. Neither Syria nor Hussein’s Iraq retaliated against Israel.
If Iran does attack Israel, there is a good chance that Bush would try to use the occasion to overthrow the Theocracy of Iran.
That's right...We should threaten to attack Israel if they don't patiently sit still and wait for Iran to get the means to blow them off the face of the globe...
If you governed Israel you would be preparing to decimate Iran's nukes
The Iranians have very nasty apocalyptic Jihad ideology that cannot be trusted with nukes. Read up on the return of the 12th Imam
At a certain point the Israelis will do what must be done independent of our approval or disapproval
As the "big Satan" we wouldn't be immune either from Iranian nukes
Just mount them on cruise missiles fired from disposable freighters off our coast
This makes NYC, Los Angeles, etc vulnerable
What are the impacts of a nuclear Iran on all of these?
What are the impacts a nuclear bomb going off in an American or Israeli city resulting in a nuclear response.
