As though Israel is the only party that will decide when and how it will attack Iran,how it will sustain after the attack,protects its borders and get away with it.Haaaaa!!! That sounds like Iran is a country absorbing all these hypes believing Israeli aircrafts will one day suddenly appear on its sky and finish the job. I wish it was that easy.The destiniy of Middle East will be different if Israelis dare attack Iran and the consequences to follow will make someone taking such a decision to regret for a long time. Before scribbling you talk-back it is imperative to use and apply logic to such a scenerio. Iran will respond and respond with extreme harshness and resolutely........no one should have these doubts.

If Israel or the US attacks Iran, they should take out Iran's hated domestic security system. Give the people a chance to take back their country. Striking this instead of the nuclear complexes is a better way to deal with Iran. It would certainly be a better PR move and would promote the rapid end of the mullahs. Just a thought.

How easy it is to tell Israel to strike Iran, sitting out there in the comfort and safety of London, Australia and the USA. Of course living there, you wouldn't have to incur Iran's wrath and suffer grave losses, maybe even have your country destroyed. If you people really want to help, urge your governments to fight with us.

Steven.Your alleged line of action is totally misplaced.Iranians,like many many other countries INCLUDING yours,of course,have their diferences but you would be shcoked when it came to national security.Assuming how the ordinary Iranians will react is your far-fetched assumption and will backfire should anything like that were to be implemented.However, on the second thought,nothing like that is to happen,Steven

Iran has very limited capabilities as far as its own battlefield retaliatory capacity is concerned. Iran’s air force cannot compete with any Western air force let alone the air forces of Israel or the United States. Its anti-aircraft defenses might account for a few planes but would not be able to stop the air strikes directed at its facilities. Iran’s principle retaliatory mechanism is the long range Shihab missile. Estimates put the number of Shihab missiles in Iran’s inventory at around 100. The Shihab is a large rocket that needs a large launch platform and therefore is easily tracked via satellite. The locations of Iran’s Shihabs are known and have been tracked in the West and Israel for some time. That said…The first waves of attacking aircraft will go after not only the nuke facilities but also Iran’s long range Shihabs. Iran might be able to launch some Shihabs but it’s reply will be weak and uncoordinated. The few Shihabs that will get off the ground will be taken out by Israel’s multi-layered anti-missile defense system which is designed specifically for this type of threat. The bigger problem isn’t Iran’s military capability; rather it is Hezbollah short range rocket arsenal which cannot be eliminated from the air. The rockets that Hezbollah has are small in size and therefore difficult to spot from the air. To counter this threat (unlike in 2006) Israel has already drawn up plans for a full-scale invasion of S. Lebanon. The plan is for 75,000 troops backed by 1000 tanks to cross into Lebanon simultaneously. They will reach the Litani River within 48 hrs. That said…If Iran will chooses to f*** with shipping lanes of the Gulf or strike at other American interests, then the full brunt of 4 American Carrier Groups will be brought to bear. ( It Seems To Me That 'Some People' Who Post Here In Support Of Iran Have Very Little Military Knowledge And Totally Lack The Capacity For Strategic Thought. ) GOOD LUCK MAHMOOD.

In your Islamist mind, it is ok for Iran to attack Israel through its tentacles, Hamas and Hezbollah by barraging Israel with thousands of rockets intending to cause massive casualties and destructions but Israel should not defend itself. In your thinking, it is ok for Iran to kill and maim thousands of Americans in Iraq through their tentacle Al Mehdi Army road side bombs and suicide bombs but America should not defend itself. This is typical of the Islamist-Jihadist mentality. No patriotic true Americans share your kind of thinking.

Israel can not do a damn thing about Iran and it's peaceful niclear program. If they could, they would have done it at the time of Bush.

Israel is a sovereign state and not a colony of any powers.

I am afraid that Persian-American in his post #20 is right. Israel of today is no match for Iran. We have to be realistic here and stop flexing our muscles.

Lets assume for the sake of the argument that Iran's nuclear program is NOT for peaceful purposes, and why not? What gives Israel the right to have a nuclear weapons arsenal and not Iran? Iran has never attacked anyone in centuries while Israel has commited war crime after another. Iran has the right to self defense just like anyone else. Iran has the right to have deterrent capabilities just like any one else. I wish Iran would go ahead at full speed to acquire as many nuclear warheads as possible.

You must have been sleeping or have been imbibing the cesspool of Islamist-Jihadist Taqiyya. Iran has never attacked? The past few years Iran, through its tentacles, Hamas and Hezbollah, has been attacking Israel repeatedly with thousands of Rocket Bombs. Without Iran, there would be no Hezbollah and Hamas. Do a lot more reading about the region before commenting. Iran's current and past Presidents have threatened to annihilate Israel repeatedly. And the fanatics are feverishly working on their nukes to accomplish their evil intention.

I refer you to talk back #33. Read and enjoy while sitting safe and sound behind you little computer screen back in the good ol' U.S of A. Playing the role of the looney ' Arm Chair ' General!

"What gives Israel the right to have a nuclear weapons arsenal and not Iran?" - The fact that Israel has a responsible, pragmatic, democratic and enlightened leadership which has no interest whatsoever in attacking anyone with a nuclear weapon, nor has called for the destruction of any other country, and just wants to mind its own business quietly. Whereas Iran's leadership is made of religious fanatics who want to spread the Islamic revolution to the entire world, and routinely call for a Jihad against the West, and for the annihilation of the state of Israel. Good enough reason? "Iran has never attacked anyone in centuries" - Actually it has attacked Iraq, in the 1980s. And today it attacks not directly as a country, but definitely via its proxies. It is well known that Iran exports terror worldwide (the Buenos Aires bombings are a good example) and arms, trains and supports terrorist groups (Hizbollah, Hamas) which constantly attack Israel. "while Israel has commited war crime after another" - Like what? Winning one war after another, all started by the Arabs? Targeting terrorists who send homicide bombers to explode in its cities? Targeting Kassam launchers, hiding behind women and children? "Iran has the right to have deterrent capabilities just like any one else." - Deterrent against what? Against who? Outside of Iraq in the 1980s, which is now history - who else has ever threatened to destroy or conquer Iran? Definitely not Israel. "I wish Iran would go ahead at full speed to acquire as many nuclear warheads as possible" - Unless you're a death-worshipping religious Muslim fanatic, this sentence makes no sense. Even the moderate Arab countries in the Middle East dread a nuclear Iran, and secretly wish Israel or America would not let that happen. And by the way - after the fundamental Islamists dispose of the "Saturday people", guess which people come next. Go watch "Fitna" to know what I'm talking about.

If that's the case let's see if Israel can survive without the total support, both financial and political, from the USA. If it weren't for the USA political supoprt at the UN right now Israel would be under as much sanctions as the old South Africa and Rodesia regimes. Don't even mention all the grants and loans to buy military hardware, sure soverign state!

Nobody so far as I can see has even brought up the fact that Israel does not need its Airforce to attack Irans many locations in their Nuke Development. Israel has heavy duty Missels capable of reaching any part of Iran. In an Article posted on the Internet (Reliable resource, if there is such a thing) states that 46 Missels fired from Israel could do major damage (prhaps ten years worth) to Irans Nuclear Program. Aircraft could be used for follow up missions. Israels guidance systems are far superior to anything Iran may have obtained from Russia or China so the devistation from its attack would be very effective. Also as a deterrant of a severe Iran reprisal is Israels Submarine fleet based in the Med and Straits of Hormose that have Nuked tipped missels that can be launched from these Subs. If Bibi is saying that Israel is prepared to go it alone if necessary he has a pretty good idea of the destructive power available to him.

Hello, I enjoy your comments. It's good to see that others are awakening and going back to the truth. The Holy Bible. Israel will survive.

It should be addressed to Persian-American and not Persian-Asian.

Our government wants to get in bed with their enemies. Americans have no more freedom, most just don't realize it yet. They're getting ready to chip all our a--- like cattle, and most Americans are too blind to see. I've thought about moving to Israel and leaving the US. I'm disgusted that my tax dollars are now paying for abortions around the world. I'm disgusted my tax dollars are going to help and fund terrorists groups like Hamas. I've given serious thought about this. The Christian population are completely ignored. We're the "evil" ones now. Come to America, the only country where you can kill your unborn child but go to prison for 5 years for killing your dog. (not that I'd kill my dog, but I hold more value on a human life than a dog's life)
