PAPER: ISRAEL PLANS NUCLEAR STRIKE ON IRAN


I think this next few weeks might get a little scary over in the ME........

Not really surprised. Having plans to do something is not the same as actually doing it though.

The U.S. military has tons of scenarios and plans for different types of wars and how to fight them. I'm sure we have some plans on when to use tactical nukes on some enemy ourselves. I'd be MORE surprised to hear that Israel doesn't have a plan.

This is really a non-issue.

Every country has contingency plans. There's nothing wrong with that. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Yes, if Iran are being serious when they say they want to "wipe Irsael off the map", it seems Israel will have to go nuclear to stop them . . . what with the US stuck in Iraq with lack of public support for another war, and UK military being a spent force . . .

However, I think Iran would bottle it if push came to shove.

Yes we have plans waiting for any situation....yet....they are not reported on.......Iran could see this as a act of war and actually try to strike first......

The report said mini-nukes?
Where's the fun in that?......

Hell if you’re going to use nukes why not just use the bigger variety? Its not like Iran would be missed or anything and surely they’ve had it coming to them for a long time.
But at the days end Iran will puss out and back down.

I really hope Iran does make the mistake of trying to start a war with Israel.....instead of exporting oil there might be a market for glass in 50 years or so.......

But only if they have clean sand...

Everyone with nukes has plans in which they are used. There is not point in having them if you don't think about how to use them. Israel certainly proved that it doesn't mess around when it took out Iraqs reactor. I doubt they will use tactical nukes however, as they could accomplish the same mission using conventional weapons at a far lower cost.
