israel is nothing without america and with america is israel also nothing. conclusion: america is nothing, israel is nothin
32. Most likely, Hezbollah & Syria will be attacked first
Gobbo   (11.17.11)
Israel needs to neutralize the threat from Hezbollah and Syria before any strike on Iran. What's brewing now is some sort of coalition strike against Syria, which will allow Israel to attack Hezbollah. This will set the stage for a probable attack on Iran. Syria could end up splintered into tribal groups. Even the Arabs in the region want Assad gone, and once he falls, there will be far less pressure to relinquish the Golan. Syria, Hezbollah, Iran, Hamas. Each domino will fall in its turn.

Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (11.17.11)
All Israel has to do is open the circuit breakers,and bingo! No electricity. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
35. does anyone remember
Daniel ,   Mountain View USA   (11.17.11)
In the invasion of Iraq we used the Russian built jamming signals to actually trace back using JDAM bombs? Kinda cool using their own signals against them, they wondered how we took out all their anti radar jamming and radar installations within the first hours of the offensive.

LION OF JUDAH   (11.17.11)
Oh yes, Israel is nothing. oh yes, israel was nothing during 48,56,67.73 and the last war in Gaza & Lebanon . Cheers to nothing Israel
37. Why do intelligence officials have big
jason white ,   afula, israel   (11.17.11)
stupid mouths? Why give the enemy an idea of the weapons that will be used against them by Israel? Do they want the attack to fail? Do they want the iranians to be prepared? Do they want Israel to lose a lot of aircraft? How would they like it if Israel was to reveal plans for a U.S. attack on n. korea for example? They would cry out about us helping the enemy and putting the lives of U.S. service people in jeopardy.

David H ,   Marietta USA   (11.17.11)
The Russians may make junk, but they make a LOT of junk, and while it may not be pretty, or new, or sophisticated, or even accurate, that junk still works and it will do damage. This whole article is saber rattling. I hope it is correct. I hope it is just half accurate, when the strike comes, and I do not doubt that it will. I pray that Israel is not too badly wounded
39. #5 - Glad Iran is Russia's #1 customer
Scott ,   Beer Sheva, Israel   (11.17.11)
We all know how reliable Russian products are, lol. Just look at how many Russian planes crashes there have been in the last decade - more than anyone else. The Iranian people are not Israel's enemies, it's the crazy mullahs taht have isolated your country.
40. America is pissed
ezra ,   brooklyn   (11.17.11)
at Bibi for not committing to for-warn Washington of a pre-emptive strike, therefore, they are doing whatever they can to leak any tactic style attack. Obama's ego is bruised and this is the result.
41. I wouldn't worry too much
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.17.11)
In the eight-year run-up to the destruction of the Osirac reactor, there was much speculation in the international press concerning what Israel would do, and how Israel would do it. Israel did it, without notifying the United States (or anyone else) beforehand. Indeed, the idiots in the White House thought for a time that Iran was responsible. The simple fact of the matter is that the United States has some idea of what Israel has in its arsenal, but they don't know it all. Let the U.S. speculate all it wants. When Israel does take action, you can rest assured that it will take everyone by surprise, and will likely involve sophisticated weapons systems that no one knows about, least of all the Americans.
42. strike on Iran
joel ,   usa   (11.17.11)
STRIKE NOW WHILE THE IRON IS HOT, HA,HA,HA!
43. Why did you publish that article?
TC   (11.17.11)
Ynet, What is your game? What are you trying to achieve? Everything can't be published just for information's sake. Without being a traitor to this country, you behaved like one: Why our enemies need to know what we are up to? Once again, what was the goal of this article? Who decided to publish it and why??????
44. lets rock
Pachunga ,   Tel Aviv   (11.17.11)
Israel will kick their butts
45. Beach Boys
Marty ,   Toronto Canada   (11.17.11)
Looks like I am going to have to shortly dust off my copy of the Beach Boys tune "Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran"
46. PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE
SJOERD RUURD VDV ,   MULTIVERSE   (11.18.11)
A PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE AGAINST IRAN IN THAT CASE COULD BE CONSIDERED AS BARBARISM AND A WAR CRIME, A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY/MANKIND OF COURSE FOLLOWED BY A REACTION. IN CASE OF AGRESSION EVERY COUNTRY/PEOPLE HAS THE RIGHT TO DEFEND ITSSELF. IT WOULD BE BETTER TO CONSULT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION AND TO SOLVE IT IN A REASONABLE WAY FOR EVERYBODY.
47. We know it must be done so let's do it!
Chaim ,   Israel   (11.18.11)
48. A big mistake
Robert ,   Australia   (11.18.11)
Iran is at least as advanced as Israel in the technology stakes. Iran has some brilliant minds. It will seriously hurt Israel to attack Iran. There will be many Israeli casualties. This article is evidently intended to give some comfort to a nation that is suffering with severe paranoia.
49. #41..SARA BS....This is NOT Iraq.....
ali ,   Villanova -USA   (11.18.11)
This will not be a cake walk... .What the F#$%.. you care less..... Any way...Continue Barking and you may get your wish...and keep spewing STUPID comments from your comfortable hideaway and secure confines in America...
50. smoke screen
oleg ,   Novgorod, Russia   (11.18.11)
This "leak" is a smoke screen to take attention away from real weapons that will be used. many of you probably know that Iran is prone to earthquakes. Now google "geophysical weapons".
51. just a matter of time
jon ,   andover,oh   (11.18.11)
Until we meet our Gods. After all its in the bible . What ever will be will be .
52. SOOOOOO smart report
Arab one ,   Vancouver, Canada   (11.18.11)

53. Hahahahahaha.....like I said....
RichInBoston ,   Boston USA   (11.18.11)
the Mulahs have no idea...NO IDEA...what awaits them. Hahahaha.
54. to #48
Maurice ,   Los Angeles, USA   (11.18.11)
You are kidding right? "Iran at least as advanced as Israel" Don't make me laugh. They can't even fix their oil refineries. The weapons they have "developed" was done with the assistance of the Russians and N. Korea.
55. #49.. There is no comfortable place
Ari the Lion ,   Miami, USA   (11.18.11)
Even the USA will not be a comfortable place when WW3 takes place, read the prophets of Israel and understand what will go down. The safest place on earth will be ONLY ISRAEL!!!
56. John Wayneitis
The Bald Scotsman ,   Medford,USA   (11.18.11)
I find it hard to read all this gung ho rubbish as though it is a movie and the good guys beat the bad guys. Yes,there will probably be a war. Let's not fool ourselves. Yes Israel will win and beat the crap out of Iran. However, Kids in their late teens and twenties, the future cream of our society will also be killed. Remember NOBODY WINS A WAR THEY JUST DONT LOSE IT AS BAD AS THE OTHER GUY. In the end we will survive but there will still be terrible losses. This is real, not Hollywood. Lee Marvin will not be there to save the day. Am Yisrael Chai ani mikaveh.
57. Such fuss about Bagdad Bobs! [End]

Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.18.11)
Iran's grand final battle plan in the war against Iraq consisted of throwing little boys under the treads of Iraqi tanks. Israel has completely compromised Iran's computers (Stuxnet, Duqu), and Iran yesterday displayed a "human chain" of Iranian women surrounding the nuclear facility at Isfahan? That's supposed to stop Israel? The country with the highest level of technology in the world today? Snicker. You are a complete imbecile. Have you a clue as to the level of devastation that Israel can bring to bear against Iran? While the Iranians sit there with their thumbs in -- well, figure out the rest of the sentence. While I live in Israel six months of the year, I note that your comments come from the friendly confines of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Stop barking, little chihuahua. You are a nothing. We know this. You do not have to persist on proving it to us. Iran is Israel's bitch. Plain and simple. Deal with it, and move on.
59. To: No. 48
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.18.11)
There won't be many Israeli casualties. On the other hand, Iran had better start digging graves. Lots of them. Iran's "technology" has been severely compromised. Can you spell "Stuxnet?" How about "Duqu?" Oh -- and the Revolutionary Guards base that housed 90% of Iran's famed "Shahab" missiles. Gee -- that got destroyed, didn't it? The true death toll is in the several hundreds. THERE IS NOTHING LEFT. Don't push us too far. We're not playing any more. Israel can destroy Iran FOREVER. Do keep that in mind. We're not pussies like the Australians. We play for keeps.
60. To: No. 46
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.18.11)
So what's going to happen in the event of a pre-emptive strike by Israel? Will the Netherlands send its -- snicker -- "special forces" to combat Israel? I remember how poorly the Netherlands functioned when the South Moluccans hijacked a train and killed innocent passengers. The full faith and credit of the Dutch military couldn't stop it. What chance do you think you will have against Israel? By the way -- none of us have forgotten about Dutch collaboration with the Nazis. Do not f**k with us, because you will come out considerably the worse for wear. Trust me. We have NOT forgotten the calumny of the Dutch. As to "reasonable?" The Islamic Republic of Iran has not been reasonable. Not a day has passed without rhetoric out of Teheran promising to "wipe the 'Zionist entity' off the map" and pledging to destroy Tel Aviv. Is that your idea of reasonable? If it is, you are the complete asshole I already know you to be. Go back to the cafe and smoke some more marijuana. Most of your brain is obviously gone; get rid of the rest of it. It certainly has not served you well. You are fated to end your days in an adult diaper, babbling incoherently. Well, hell. You're halfway there already.
