In their national security interests striking isn't an option is they want to survive. If it all goes active Israel should strike immediately and would be right in doing so!

Strategy: Wait for the Iranian populace to overthrow an unpopular government OR risk alienating the populace by foreign intervention to overthrow the government?

Fire when ready. Just read the article in this weeks Atlantic on A.Q. Khan and his 3 decade effort to obtain the "Muslim bomb." We really failed when we allowed that to happen (we knew all about it as early as the mid-1970's), and we must not allow any other failed state to have such a device. Europe, btw, will do absolutely nothing to help, hell, they were the ones lining up to give Pakistan the bomb, mostly to give the U.S. the finger. If a rogue state does unleash one, I hope it winds up landing in Europe if it has to land somewhere.

"an undisclosed number of F-15 bombers and F-16 fighters"
Recedntly, the Israeli gov't released a ton of info to a US reporter who wrote a book on this raid. As I recall, this info was in the book.

"Israel Maintains Option To Strike Iran Nukes"
And why not?
We have (or should have) learned that you can't deal with terrorist. You can deal with Communists (MAAD, etc.) but you can't negotiate with a person or a group of people so fanatical that they would be eager to die while trying to kill you.
So, if the Iran develope nukes, then it is pretty much assured that Israel won't be able to negotiate a nonaggression treaty. Especially, if Iran give the weapons to their favorite terrorists.
So what alternatives do they have? Pretty much none (IMHO).

"There were no reported casualties."
I have always heard that one Frenchman died.

"A similar strike against Iran is said to be more than ready, with Israel and the US awaiting the right time and the right place."
Great news! (and a surprise to me.)

"The sources said the Fajr-3 marked an extended range version of the Soviet-origin Katyusha."
I don't understand. I thought the Russians were our allies in the war on terror?

In 2002, a former Iraqi nuclear engineer told a Senate hearing Wednesday that the country could have nuclear weapons by 2005.Is there an editor in the house?

Do it, Israel. If you don't, no one else will.
While the U.S. and other nations wring their hands at the UN, Israel will do what she must. Her very survival is at stake.
