These are the missiles that will be used and possible air routes the Israelis might take for an attack.

Israel needs to just do it
The classic photo of the weeping Frenchman greeting the triumphant Nazis marching into Paris suggests itself--
I beg to differ--the catastrophe will be Rat Boy the Holocaust Denier getting the bomb so he can create the chaos of an attack on Israel to coax the Twelfth Imam from the well near Qum.
There would be your "absolute catastrophe"--not Osirak II.
Now just redo the map for the US in case we need to bomb DC
LOL
It seems everyone is waiting for or a nuclear test or for Iran to claim to have nukes. But Iran has never operated within expected protocol.
They could have nukes and be shipping them to terrorists and when one or more goes off they can more easily deny it came from them.
Iran wants these things for use.
Twelfth Imam bump
They will get Saudi permission. It is in the works.
I read it in a report somewhere. The Saudis have been playing around with the idea of having nuclear weapons. The have the delivery missiles though. They have been buying Chinese-made CSS-2 intermediate-range ballistic missiles.
I forgot to mention those Chinese made missiles can carry an hydrogen bomb.
That is an excellent question, one many keep asking, considering we have Iran's despotic Islamic régime surrounded from Afghanistan, Iraq, along with our Navy in the Persian Gulf. The only border left to Rat Boy and the Mullahmania is the Caspian Sea, and further to the north, Putin, feeding the Iranian dictatorship all the nuclear fuel they require, Russian anti-aircraft installations protecting their nuclear weapons plants, and Russian nuclear technicians making the unthinkable a dangerous reality.
Now Israel is stuck, alone, with a very difficult task, again (the first time when they took out Saddam's French built nuke weapons plant), since what lurks in the White House supports the enemy in Tehran.
I have been hearing the same “Iran can build the bomb in a year” thing for 10 years now.
Israel do somethign or stop crying so damn much. Iran is a hell of a lot closer to Israel then freaking America. Look at a damn map.
I concur with you & similar to Osama bin Laden sightings, bin Laden tapes, and bin Laden hideouts and the old standby- Where’s Osama bin Laden?
As long as those key nuclear sites are kaboomed, the centrifuges destroyed, the heavy water reactor destroyed, and their scientists are killed, by Israeli PGMs dropped from Ra’ams, Sufas or even Raptors (if they can get them).
Thanks to the feckless Islamophile Obama,Iran will nuke Tel Aviv and then Israel will nuke every Muslem population center (especially Mecca and Medina) in Asia.
Then we will have no choice but to drill for our own oil or every politician in America will be voted out.
As for Israel,the Jews are long masters at survival and since BHO’s inauguration,they have been preparing for this.
Some may need to understand that the attack on Bushear was barely able to be accomplished by the IDF back in the day...
The airspaces between them and Iran are not going to be available, and will be hostile to allow an attacking force to fly thru to get to the goal here...
They may have had a slim chance to do so if we were still in control of the Iraqi airspace, but that would have required additional political and logistical support from us in that case...
The attacking force will either hve had to have had tanker refueling support or landing facilities to give the elements conducting the attack a chance to succeed...Otherwise it might be a one way trip at best...Not too many of the best in the IDF are going to want to explore that...Not that they wouldn’t do it...It is a matter that if this is done...It will not be the end, and the repercussions Israel will have to endure (on its own, again) will be devastating, and the best in the IDF will be needed in that defense...They will not be allowed to sacrifice on this one mission...
And since the U.S. Administration is doing what they can to remove themselves from Iraqi infrastructure (air defense and airspace control), Obama is certainly giveing the Iranians a little breathing room...
Just my opinion...
Good point! Most people don’t realize that gun-barrel uranium bombs DON’T need to be tested - the US dropped one on Horoshima w/o a test. BUT - the more complex implosion-type plutonium bombs DO need to be tested, to avoid fizzles like the Norks had in 2006. Why have them, then? They are more compact triggers for Fusion bombs - one on each side of that device,, sandwiching the fusion material in the middle, for a bigger yield.
What are the chances that they'll get Iran's program right? And on what basis do they say that it's a slim chance that Iran will make the decision to assemble the bomb? This is the scariest part of the article. The arrogance, self-centeredness and plain stupidity of judging the Mullah's intentions is breathtaking. We'd be better off with the Boy Scouts running our intelligence services.
