Iran has a nuke. It is Pakistans and will be launched using a NK missile.

There is no suprise here. Question is, "will Israel be able to shoot it down and if they do, what will they do to retaliate?"

I am betting Iran is going to do this because it is no lose for them. If they have one and launch it, they know that Israel will be stopped from retailiating because of the oil.

Wrong. If you take out the Government and its ability to fight back, you can basically go in and take the oil. Nobody wants to nuke the oilfields. Shatter the Gov't's ability to defend the Persian homeland by a devastating nuclear counterstroke. Understand that if we don't, it will only be a matter of time until the Muzzies do it to the American homeland. This will not be allowed to stand. The Islamists think it will, but they will be destroyed thinking that nonsense.

Literally, nuke their ass, take their gas. The Izzies won't retaliate. We will, to set an example for other Muzzies.

Wow......who's your source on all of this...Mansoor Ijaz?

Let's just say for the sake of arguement, you're correct. If Iran launches any long range missiles at Israel from their territory, whether it's a nuke, or not.....Hell will be unleashed on Iran.

If Iran directly attacked Israel one thing is for sure. Israel wouldn't be stopped in defending her existence. It wouldn't even surprise me that Israel's #1 target might be Iran's oil infrastructure itself. Wipe out Iran's income and what's left? Iran's oil is not a U.S. concern or an Israeli concern. The world wide price would go up but our actual supply would not be substantially affected. Iran, being the agressor, would prove to the world what she really is, a danger to civilized societies everywhere.

I don't see that anything would stop Israel from retaliating for a nuke attack. Even if (let's pray) any such ballistic missiles are taken out by Arrow missiles before they can hit Israel, I would expect any government of Israel to obliterate Iran's major military, nuclear, and governmental installations with both nuclear and non-nuclear retaliation.

Actually, if the Mullahs go off that cliff I would expect that any US government would act to end the Iranian Mullahocracy and military once and for all.
