I dont think Israel has the aircraft capability to lug the deep penetrator type of weapon all the way to IRAN. They would need a B1 at least.

They are probably for Hezbollah and Syria.

Hello, it only took 83 posts to get the right answer. The Hezzies have 40,000 rockets, mostly stored underground, all aimed at Israel. I think that this is the more immediate problem - and one that should have been taken care of on a permanent basis about 2 years ago. Olmert REALLY screwed the pooch on that one, and now his successor will have to deal with them and the Syrians and Hamas before dealing with Iran. After all, if Israel hits Iran, 40,000 rockets get dumped on it inside of a week - unless Israel takes those out first (or a goodly percentage of them).
