I think that Israel was more concerned about the potential delivery systems that Iran had than the nukes per se. Range and accuracy. You saw the potential capabilities last year and you are seeing it now.

They could probably do damage to Israel, but I would be surprised if they could hit targets in the US within a decade.

Hard to say, what we do know is the mullahs have made it very clear their goal is to wipe Israel from the face of the earth. I guess the Israelis 100% believe what the mullahs have been vowing for years and decided to bust a move.

Was?
Do we know the extent of damage as much was deeply underground.

It's more a matter of intent. Nuclear power requires U235 enriched to 5-7%, whereas a weapon is closer to 90%. If there was evidence Iran had enough material at 50% enriched to make one bomb, what would you say the intent was? Cause it ain't nuclear power.

I must have missed all the mushroom clouds from the Israeli nukes throughout the years when they had to retaliate..


Did you miss the time that they sunk the USS liberty, whacked JFK and did 9/11?

So make peace.

Then allow the nuclear deterrent to keep it.


How can you make peace with a country full of savages whose purpose in life is to eradicate every Jew and wipe their country off the map????

I'm not sure we ( U.S.) is in the least concerned about that. I think Israel is scared shitless about the improved range and accuracy.

I cant say I blame Israel for being wary. Iran has talked a lot of shite.

Yep. This is a prime example of that if you shidttalk, be prepared to back up your threats or someone is going to post on you pre-emptively.

This is over the frickin Arabs (Palestinians) . Persians don't like them on good days. Iran used to have formal relations with Israel during the Shah....everyone got along, mostly.
