In last few days there has been discussion on what steps Israel may
take in reply to Iran's rocket attacks.
President Biden said that the US should not make representations to
Iran about their nuclear weapons program.
Iran has announced that Israel will be removed in a few years.
They actually fixed a year, 2029, I think it was.
That sounded like they were hinting at a nuclear attack.
Israel would have to assume that was what they meant.

With that in mind an attack on the nuclear project would have to be on
the list even as Biden has warned Israel off the oil industry and
the nuclear project.
Israel does not admit that they have nuclear weapon(s).
Iran calls Israel a one bomb country. Perhaps they know something.

Whatever the way it goes it has to be a very real worry for us all.

That Iran has a nuclear capability can be fairly laid at the feet of another weak, Leftist President, Barack Obama: the one who is beavering away in the background to get the dreadful Kamala Harris elected.

Iran is set to wipe out Israel by 2029? I think that Israel will have knocked the stuffing out of Iran by them. Iran has always got the terrorists to do their fighting for them; but Israel is steadily working its way through Hezbollah and Hamas.

Half the population of Iran is Persian. They might have somewhere input as well, if they are given support.

Hi Bezza,

Israel needs to seriously think about what its going
to do regarding Iran. There are diplomatic considerations
and serious repercussions.

A strike on Iran's nuclear program as well as a strike on
Iran's oil sector (Iran's economic backbone) would
guarantee an Iranian response and raise the risk of further
escalation.

Such strikes would not only rattle global oil markets. It
would shake the US economy prior to the presidential
election. Bombing Iran's nuclear program would also risk
Iranian retaliation not only against Israel but against
American troops stationed in the region or on Gulf Arab
countries that are aligned with the West.

Disaster all round.

Israeli attacks on Iran has international and global
repercussions.

We should all be concerned.

Lets hope that in Israel cooler heads will prevail.

Mr Netanyahu should be told - "Bomb them if you must -
but Iran's a big place - so you've got a few choices.
Just stay away from Iran's nuclear program and it's
oil sectors ".

So Foxy, put yourself in Israel's position.
Iran has nuclear program well underway, and last I remember reading is
they have enough uranium for 4 weapons almost ready.
For years their motto has been Death to Israel and death to America.
Surely the ability to wipe out Israel will be very tempting.
It will make Iran the leader of the Islamic world, and who would challenge them ?
The US or Britain may retaliate with strikes of their own but that
would be risky as Iran could smuggle a bomb into Britain or the US.
It is a nightmare vision but the Allah of the Koran might approve.
If Iran only demonstrates the bomb it will change everything !
How would you handle this situation ?

The nuclear danger for the world has never been greater. Its clear that the possession of weapons of mass destruction, rather than deter the possibility of annihilation of humanity, simply increases the threat. It would take no more than a moment of madness by one actor, one state, to set off a chain reaction of destruction.

Why do states like Iran and North Korea believe they need to posses nuclear capability? The answer is simple, they feel threatened, and rightly so, by others who already posses such weapons. Nuclear weapons deter no one, if any state thinks they are in a situation, rightly or wrongly, that their very existence is about to be terminated then they will use everything at their disposal, including nuclear weapons, in an attempt to remove that possibility. Remove the weapons and you remove the threat, but has the world gone too far, and nuclear disarmament is no longer possible, me thinks so. PEACE.
