Looks like Netanyahu is up to his old neo-con hegemonic tricks again.

Report: Israel gearing to bomb Iran's nuclear sites - Israel News, Ynetnews

London Time reports Israeli Air Force gearing for possibility of strike on Tehran 'within days, maybe hours if given the green light.' National Security Studies Institute member says that despite reports, attack unlikely without US support

The Israeli military is preparing itself to launch a massive aerial assault on Iran's nuclear facilities within days of being given the go-ahead by its new government, the London Times reported Saturday.

Among the steps taken to ready Israeli forces for what would be a risky raid, requiring pinpoint aerial strikes, are the acquisition of three Airborne Warning and Control (AWAC) aircraft and regional missions to simulate the attack.

Two nationwide civil defense drills, scheduled to be held in the next few weeks, are said to help prepare the public for the retaliation that Israel could face.

“Israel wants to know that if its forces were given the green light they could strike at Iran in a matter of days, even hours. They are making preparations on every level for this eventuality. The message to Iran is that the threat is not just words,” the report quoted a senior defense establishment official as saying.

Officials believe that Israel could be required to hit more than a dozen targets, including moving convoys. The sites include Natanz, where thousands of centrifuges produce enriched uranium; Esfahan, where 250 tons of gas is stored in tunnels; and Arak, where a heavy water reactor produces plutonium.

And so WWIII begins. Those stupid ****ers in Israel will not be happy until we are all dead. This is is the moment, if the attack goes ahead, when everyone will finally get to see that there is NO difference between Obama and Bush/Cheney. God help us all.

Good news. The sooner Iran is hit and hit hard the better. Obama reached out and he got nothing in return. The mad mullahs are a threat to the region.

They might find that Iran is a different proposition than Gaza.

I can only presume you meant Iran/muslims here. They are the crowd that want every non-muslim and western country obliterated.

I personally hope Israel bombs the sh1t out of Iran.

Well said. But I would qualify by saying that the people of Iran are blameless. Bombings should target the Revolutionary Guard and the Mullahs. If they are obliterated the Iranian people will be the big beneficiaries.

Are you claiming the people dont support the Mullahs?

I am sure they don't. They voted overwhelmingly for Khatami but his reform drive was stifled. The Council of Guardians have since ensured no one gets close to the Presidency who'll rock the boat.
