...but then they are rather ingenious and resourceful.

That they are, Candor7, in spades. TomasUSMC points out that their 747 cargo planes could be used.

Tomas (and/or others) - I would be interested in hearing how Israel might effect such a raid on Iran. I have always thought it apparent that Israel would need assistance from at least us, if not several others.

What are the issues, whether bunker busters or more conventional bombs are used?

- overflight of several countries
- how to protect bombers, there and back
- refueling needed? who, how, and where?
- alt landing site need? Afghan strip controlled by US?
- how would plans change if 747s rather than f-15s were used?
- how to get back to Israel
- all this considering that multiple facilities would have to be targeted.

Thanks for any insights you may have.
