There is no doubt in my mind that they will inevitability level a nuclear attack against Israel. Not a matter of if, but of when.

I guess our plan is to sit back and try and impose useless sanctions and jaw bone them until they succeed. I wonder if anybody in the Government has figured out the Iranian game plan. Delay....Delay....Delay.

If?

The better word is "when".

Iran's goal is not to use the nuke, but to have nukes as a demonstration of national and Shiite ascendency in the Middle East and Muslim world.

They still have to deliver a nuke either by boat or missile. Both can be stopped by our technology.

I would say they would do a Middle East version of Pearl Harbor, they would wait for a time and place where as many of our ships that beint he US if not Israel, planes or personnel are concentrated and then do a suicide-nuke.

I would not be surprised if Iran was to even go so far as to do it in Afghanistan.

The real answer is that Iran will become more assertive, militarily and economically. They will be freer to engage in conventional warfare and regional bullying.

If and when Iran gets nuclear weapons it would set off a global nightmare.

Forget the "if" part.

It is a matter of "when" only. And then "when" will be ahead of what most people and governments believe. Iran became more emboldened in its pursuit of nuclear weapons once Barack was elected. It was their go-ahead to go full-blast in their development efforts.

The "if" part was taken care of when Obama was elected. Obama will pretend that his administration is pursuing all diplomatic means to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons, but they are also not about to do anything about it when Iran does actually make their first nuclear test. Democrats have never seen anything wrong with Iran getting nuclear weapons. They may openly make statements against Iran getting the weapons and about how dangerous Iran would be with them, but the reality is that democrats don't believe that a nuclear Iran would be any more dangerous and destabilizing to the region and the world than they are now.

It is that attitude by the democrats that will cause Israel to attack Iran in order to destroy their nuclear capabilities.

Open hostilities between Iran and Israel became a lot more real and closer when Obama was elected.

Syria is a quite small country in area. Don’t know how any nuclear explosion would not drop some dirty air over them.

a nuke strike on Israel would bring out celebrations on many college campuses and cities like Dearborn and Tulsa

Iran could also fire one of their missles from a ship, aimed at the US. No one could respond quick enough to defend against it. You don’t need a launching pad for this.

Simple, they will become the dominant power in the middle east. Not to worry, our cars will be running on wind. They can't take that away, can they? No matter, my car will run on potato salad.
