Is it just gonna be an attack on the nuclear facilities like they with Iraq when they tried to get nukes or is it gonna be a full frontal airstrike on Iran’s major cities ? Has there been anything written that suggests what kind of attack it would be ? None of this is inconistent, one day you hear of planned strikes and the next you hear that Israel is no longer worried over Iran’s ability to get nuclear warheads. And there has been warnings of Israel looking to strike Iran for several years now; I think last summer or the summer before there was this same issue over whether Israel was gonna strike iran before they got the nuclear technology. At this point it’s like a parent repeatedly counting to 3 in an attempt to warn the child of a punishment, than doing nothing when he/she reaches 3 each time.
I doubt they would strike cities, perhaps missile facilities, perhaps an inside job (I think I heard that that Stucnex (sp?) worm was installed from inside Iran, who knows what help they may be getting from inside. Also remember the raid on Entebbe.
Meanwhile, in other Middle East news, here are recent stories from Libya: The Niger army apparently struck some Gaddafi supporters trying to smuggle arms out of Libya.
Here is an interesting story about the new Libyan leader facing down any angry group of unpaid rebels with great diplomatic skill. Incidentally, he has spend quite some time in the US.
