I think the Lebanon battle a few years ago showed us all that Israel is not the invincible force they once were. I think they would think hard and long before attacking Iran now.
i disagree. there is an image to maintain and a western nation to hide behind. if israel said fuck it and launched an attack they'd lose popular western support and get their asses handed to em by about 5 muslim nations.
it's like the scrawny kid on the playground talking shit while his big friends are around.
Ya cause those same 5 nations pulled it off against a poorly armed and trained Israel in 1948, 1956 and 1967? That scrawny kid has tossed the muslim bullies about like rag dolls for years.
As for Lebanon, Israel hardly lost except for what they tried to do. Go ahead see what happens to conventional armies attacking them.
Ohh and what 5 nations would it be again?
...and an empty Strategic Reserve. Good God.
My pet theory:
Iran fought for 8? years against an Army (Iraq) that we rolled over in weeks.
I believe that the WMD rationalization was secondary to the tactical need to flank Iran on three sides. i.e. Afghanistan to the East, Iraq to the West and the Indian Ocean to the South.
Pakistan is an unknown. The recent bombing of Indian interests may seal their fate.
Syria is Israels. Or we could go west and take them out as well. The problem is that we are stretched thin. This whole thing could go South real quick.
Just my opinion.
