91. I don't understand this blogger's "logic"
(02.06.12)
1. If Iran attacks Israel, what will prevent Israel to use the nuclear option before it's hit, assuming that Iran actually has the capability to launch an attack on Israel which will be marginally effective. Muslims may have 200,000 missiles in stock, but they don't have 200,000 launchers. And most of those missiles will fail too. Israel will be hurt, no doubt about that, but far from annihilated. Nobody would want to deal with an Israel fighting for its very existence. And if they think that in this case EU and US diplomacy will stop Israel, they're very wrong. The Israeli reaction will be devastating for whomever challenges its existence. Teheran should never forget that. 2. When/if Israel launches an attack on Iran, Iran will not have 9 minutes to do anything!
92. Israel beware
Bruno ,   Los Angeles   (02.06.12)
So most of Israelis on YNet want to wipe out Iran but its not ok for one Iranian blogger to say the same. Shows again and again who is full of hate and anger. Israel, you are becoming a big liability and your will never live in peace as long as you act the way you act.
93. Radical Hatred From Another Idiot
kerry ,   canada   (02.06.12)
The 9 second destruction of Israel scenario isn't as scary as the frame of mind of these fanatics. Too many of them out there running free. Islamic Nut Jobs should be institutionalized and de programmed from there hate mongering religion!!

You forget a very important aspect: Ground forces who actually win or lose the wars. If attacked by nukes, Iran and Muslim states can join forces and invade Israel. That's it. You cannot raise a ground army that can resist combined Muslim armies. You can only fight a defensive war, not an offensive war.

Don't they have any psychiatrists in Iran?

Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (02.06.12)
Will Turkey also join the forces of evil?
97. any fool can see another war is coming
Mike ,   London, UK   (02.06.12)
but the difference is that, this time, Israel must make it so painful for its enemies that they never threaten it again. If that means nukes, then so be it.
98. Islam is Haram
Haybusa ,   Durban South Africa   (02.06.12)
Barbie is haraam. The Simpsons are haraam. But somehow ongoing War is not Haraam? Stealing other peoples land is not Haraam? Spreading that suppressive Cult is not Haraam? How come all their leaders are crazy dictators? Like Saddam, Gadaffi, Bin laden and the list goes on (...ALL) Nuke them Israel. If they make one move, JUST DO IT.

it is a simple warning light to israel, this blogger does not say but. iran has large quantities of chemical and bacteriological weapons, which can also annihilated israel. not need nuclear weapons for this goal.une attack on nuclear facilities will trigger the end of israel, iran too , but the end of israel all options are on the table for Iran also
100. normal

israel repeats every day "all options are on the table" it is natural that Iran seeks to defend itself, bravo iran!!

The moment Israel attacks major population centers is the moment world opinion willl shift away from them. Saying that though, since many of their major development and distribution centers ARE in MPC'S, that will be necessary and recognizably - so by any right thinking persons. Aside from that, with every random rocket these Muslims fire, they risk an attack on a "major population center" and they don't care - in fact, they cheer when civilians are killed - common knowledge among civilized peoples the world over.

Hard to raise an army when you've been vaporized.

Why? Did world opinion turn away from the Allies following the sheer carnage resulting from the carpet bombing of Germany during World War II? Did it turn away from the Allies following the complete destruction of Dresden? Did it turn away from the United States following the relentless firebombing of Tokyo and other Japanese cities? Did it turn away from the United States following the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? In a word, "No." It didn't. Israel has had to endure six wars -- all started by the Arabs -- and seven decades of unremitting ersatz "Palestinian" terror. Israel has also had to endure daily threats of annihilation from the lunatics in Teheran for over thirty years. Besides, what difference does world opinion make, anyway? An existential threat is an existential threat. Will they fault Israel for ensuring its survival? Probably. Will Israel care? Probably not. You know, anti-Semitism and flat-out hatred of Jews has not gone away. It has merely changed its focus since the creation of the modern State of Israel. Nothing new under the sun. But this time, we will not be herded passively into gas chambers or their twenty-first century equivalent. We'll pull down the temple walls first. Take out as much as we can (which, considering Israel's nuclear strength, is considerable), and render the rest of the world uninhabitable for the next one hundred thousand years. Iran represents the greatest threat to civilization that has ever reared its ugly head. I have enough faith in humanity to believe that they understand that sacrificing Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas is well worth the price. But the Jewish people will NEVER AGAIN go gently into that good night, and the rest of the world would be well served to grasp this rather simple fact.

Good riddance, Yussuf.

One problem, the Muslims tried that in 1948 and that didn't work out for them. And Israel didn't even have a trained military like they do today. And if a muslim coalition was foolish enough to try invade Israel, they ( Israel ) would light up the entire middle east.

Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.07.12)
What makes you think we are waiting for U.S. approval? Did we wait for U.S. approval when we took out the Osirac reactor? I think not. We tend to take existential threats rather seriously, and you deluded lot in Lebanon had better behave like nice little cretins, or else Israel's new northern border is at least the Litani, and quite possibly Tripoli. So put your thumbs back where you usually keep them, and shut up. We can turn Lebanon into a huge glowing cinder pretty much whenever we want. And we will, should you force our hand. You would do well to keep that very much in mind.

How many countries, cities are you going to "vaporize"? Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, more? How will you do that when you cannot simply bring down a militia organization like Hezbollah? Live in your delusions.
108. Cold-blooded Murder is NEVER Justifiable
Joshua ,   usa   (02.07.12)
And even if someone hurts you doesn't mean you have the right to go ahead and hurt them back or worse! It's wrong to even seriously consider 'launching missiles' or planning for attacks on innocent people, and endorsing mass-murder. How can people buy this shit?
109. I'm israel girl
israel girl ! ,   israel   (02.08.12)
I am israeli girl , I am only 15 years old but I Understand the situation.. I am Jewish and believe in my religion, but I do not exclude other religions and certainly not to hate people because of their religion . IDF - our State's soldiers who are they? Overall most of them children aged 18-21 do an army. But they are prepared to sacrifice their lives and putting them at risk to save ours! And that pride! You know how many soldiers were killed to save our people? How many mothers and fathers cried when they lost their child? I'm just a girl that not understand politics and government. But I understand emotion, pain, and fear. What we want war? Kill people? Absolutely not, we want peace! Fun to get up in the morning and hear was a missile from Gaza? The dead in terrorist attacks? Absolutely not! I'm writing this with all my heart, in order that others will put it in their heart, too! You can tell me what I understand I'm only 15, I'm just a kid But you can not judge me because I live here, and truth? I am proud to live here. I love the world ! I am not Hate Arabs or Muslims as I see them, Because I can not judge a man by his religion! Like having a good Jew I'm sure there are good Muslims and good Arab Wants peace just like me! And smile of people is what makes me happy .
110. A blogger
SanMan ,   moon   (02.08.12)
A blogger, someone in the peanut gallery someone who is no longer in a position of power, he says its his opinion not the regimes. Who cares except for another blog to get more money from ads.
111. HAHAHHA Sarah you blockhead
SanMan ,   moon   (02.08.12)
Wow looks like there will be a new article in ynet tomorrow about a "commentor" named Sarah who threatens to nuke not only Iran but also Syria as well. Its really really strange that Iran might want to get a few nukes, I have no idea why. None at all.
