Iran is stockpiling short-range ballistic missiles in Iraq that can reach Israel, according to a New York Times report that cited American intelligence and military officials.
The hidden rockets are part of a larger effort by Iran to intimidate countries in the region and assert its power, the Times reported. Short-range missiles generally have a range of just over 600 miles, so one fired from just outside of Baghdad could reach Jerusalem.
Irans effort to build up its arsenal comes as the United States has sent thousands of troops to the region with plans to send more. The arms in Iraq are reportedly intended to dissuade the United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia from attacking Iran.

They just blew up a big Iranian weapons depot in Syria. Id imagine hitting something in Iraq would be just as easy.

Depends on if the leaders are insane enough to really believe what they say they believe, re: the “End Times” - according to Islam.
Yep.
As the man once said “I pity the fools”
That was my first thought.
“but I wouldnt have a problem with helping Israel with weaponry and such, if needed to take them out.”

What is Israel’s dealings with Azerbaijan right now? I remember a few years ago they were going to use them as a staging area to attack Iran...and someone in the Obama admin leaked it.
Israel has endured decades of aggression and only responded with conventional weapons. When and if destruction inside Israel becomes to great to bear, they will nuke you and most justifiably so.
Thanks Eleutheria5.

Israel has LOTs of plane that can reach Iraq!
