Israel will never allow itself to placed into a missile crisis like the Cuban Missile crisis.
Israel knows that they can’t depend on the new Amerika under 0b0z0.
When their intel tells them, it is time to preempt. Israel will take out the nuclear capability of Iran and maybe its Jihadist Thugs.
Don’ worry, Doc. Mr. Obama will charm them out of having such weapons.
And very soon now, I will be flying to Europe...by flapping my arms.
Very good points made here. We shall see. Isreal needs Hashem’s intervention
0bama is basically throwing Israel to the wolves and Bush was doing the same. Islam is taking over Europe and a Kenyan has taken over the United States. What will be left for white Christians and Jews? I note here 0bama is a pagan who worships himself. Has he been to church yet?
Israel's Arab neighbors have not waged a full-scale traditional war against Israel since 1973 -- in part because there is no longer a nuclear patron, in the form of the Soviet Union, to threaten the use of nukes should Israel strike back too strongly against its aggressors. But give Iran a bomb or two and it will be able to guarantee Hezbollah and Hamas -- or a coalition of Muslim states -- a secure fallback position if they attack Israel and lose. Then there is inter-Islamic rivalry. If Iran gets a bomb, it will send a message that the Persian Shiites, not the Sunni Arabs, are the true effective defenders of the faith against the Zionist entity. Tehran will also remind these monarchies and dictatorships that Iran is an ascending revolutionary power that appeals to the Muslim masses across geographical boundaries. Some even insist that Iran is apocalyptic... The real reason may be something else. More likely, Iran wishes to break Israel's will -- not necessarily by a nuclear strike. Instead, periodic threats from a nuclear theocracy, Iran may recognize, would do well enough. Once armed with the bomb, Iran will likely increase the frequency of its now-familiar denial of the Holocaust. In between such well-publicized lunacy, some Iranians, such as Pres. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, will periodically threaten to wipe Israel off the map -- or promise Armageddon if Israel retaliates against Hamas or Hezbollah.
Iran will produce 25-50 nuclear weapons and put them in ballistic missiles, to give itself a retaliation capability sufficient to deter Israel. Then it will give 3-5 nukes to its terrorist proxies, Hezbollah and Hamas. The terrorist proxies will then nuke Israel.
Quite straightforward, really. Iran calculates that Israel will not risk 50 more nuclear attacks just to get revenge on a distant sponsor. They might be wrong or they might be right, but that is their calculation. Considering how spineless every western government is these days, and half of the Israeli populace, it is probably a fair guess.
This is so obvious the only wonder is why men everywhere continue to pretend otherwise, and invent scores of new competing excuses for Iranian tyrants. The Iranian tyrants themselves have been entirely straightforward about it throughout. It is plain as a pikestaff. But men will invent anything rather than face the simple fact.
