Sure go right ahead...

If they really are in that much of a hurry to see every major mid-east muslim city reduced to dust by israeli nuclear response, and believe me their nukes are a lot more powerful and modern that the primitive WWII era grade bomb Iran or Iraq might be able to produce.

Israel is going to take out the reactor before it comes fully online

Don't count on it. Welcome to the Clinton legacy.

[ken5050]

They call it "birth control"

Hey Raffy, you're next!

RAFSANJANI SAYS MUSLIMS SHOULD USE NUCLEAR WEAPON AGAINST ISRAEL

Rafsanjani and Democratic Representative Moran...soul-mates...
If not lovers...
(hey, I'm not even Jewish, but I think Rep. Moran earned that sort of cheap-shot...)

[DCPatriot]

The Prosecution rests, Your Honor!

Let's Roll!!

[VOA]

One of Iran’s most influential ruling cleric called Friday on the Muslim states to
use nuclear weapon against Israel,
assuring them that while such an attack would annihilate Israel,
it would cost them "damages only".

Talk about a Death-Wish!
I can't remember number of the last "Death Wish" film, but I think Charles Bronson
with some make-up could probably portray Rafsanjani in a film about this...

Oh, this is the news report to hand to all your Democratic/Liberal/Wacky
friends who thought the "Axis of Evil" phrase was "extremist"...

[DCPatriot]

I will bet you all good American dollars that Israel will initiate an attack on these sites to coincide with the upcoming attack on Iraq.

It will be like a scene out of the Godfather movie when Michael finished the family's business during the baby's baptism.

Iraq and Korea will both get "whacked", and Iran will get b*tched-slapped by Israel's jet fighters.

PS. Hey China! Pay attention, because we think your fingerprints are all over these Far East events.

It would appear that the Iranians - and, let's face it, a lot of other Moslem/Arabic countries - are in such a blind fury of the Jewish State that they are willing to turn their entire country into a suicide bomber.

Israel has been very coy about its possession of nuclear weapons - not to mention the size of its arsenal - unlike the Arabs who are actively threatening a nuclear attack even when they don't yet have the weapons. This Moslem sabre-rattling was the principal reason that the Israelis bombed Saddam's nuclear bomb factory in (I think) 1981. After all, if they're explicitly telling everyone they're going to use the bombs on you, that's about all the evidence you need to go in for a disabling strike.

Israel would undoubtedly not take a nuclear (or other) attack sitting on its hands. Even if a sneak attack destroyed all but one of its jets or all but one of its submarines, it would launch a retaliatory strike. My own suggestion is nuke the Arab oil fields first. A nuclear bomb on a major oilfield would cause a flare that could be seen by astronauts on the moon ... and would instantly reduce that Arab country's credit rating to zero. If a second wave is possible, go for the tourist attractions, such as Damascus or the pyramids and, yes, Mecca.

Karnak predicts a short lifespan for Iran's nuclear reactor.

[sheik yerbouty]

I figure that's how it may go down.

[Question_Assumptions]

They're third on the list. Before suggesting the nuking of Israel, this "cleric" might want to think about the effects of an Israeli nuke on the capitals of the Muslim world. Or the Aswan High Dam. Or Mecca. Israel is estimated to have about a hundred nuclear weapons. Is he sure he can get all of them, and their delivery systems, before Isreal responds? Oh, and don't forget that the Isreali military takes their oath of office at Masada...

[DoughtyOne]

Buttheads like this guy are why I place Iran on the short list right behind North Korea.

Iran's day is coming. You know, if we have to conquer and install republics across the whole of the middle-east, it'd be worth it.

[AppyPappy]

Islam means peace.

[Jim Noble]

I know-lets send a large multidivision sea-air-land force to the doorstep of Iran...

There is some possibility that W is going to try to finish the family business in a surprising way.

[blam]

"He is all but inviting the Israelis to do an Osirak on Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant."

That threat just gave them the justification. It's not time yet though.
