If you kill Russians then we are in for big trouble. They still have thousands of nukes. They are the one nation that can exterminate us from the globe. Nobody will bomb that site as long as there are hundreds of russians there and i suspect they will be there for a long time.

Do you honestly think Russia would lanuch ICBMs against the US (and commit suicide in the process) over a few dead at an Iranian reactor?

And incidentally, the Russian workers won't be living at the reactor. There will probably be numerous opportunities to destroy it without them being there.

I'd lay odds, and am taking bets, that this thing never gets online. There is no way Israel will accept the Iranians having a nuclear capability, alongside the existing Iranian ICBM program. The Iranians have the capability to launch a missile that will hit Israel, it would be suicide for the Israeili's to allow the Iranians to develop a nuclear capability. This is simply a Russian bargaining chip with us, they want something big from us, and whatever it is, as long as the profit potential from our deal exceeds the profit potential of the Iranian Nuclear reactor, the Russian's will drop it like a hot potato.
