    It is well known that this is the long term goal.

    Iranian Scientist 'Sought Israel's Annihilation,' Says Widow

    http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/153044#.T0fMzlE3-AC

    The wife of Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, an Iranian nuclear scientist who was assassinated in Tehran in January, said Tuesday that her husband "sought the annihilation of the Zionist regime wholeheartedly," according to Iran's semi-official Fars news agency.

    Regardless of whether this is true or not, it doesn't matter. The scientists determine the how, not the what, of military technology. I'm sure there are many crazies in the middle east who really want that, but the question is whether the leaders are really that crazy.

    Their supreme religious leader publically calls it a sin to own nuclear weapons at all - suggesting Iran has a moral high ground over Israel and America. Meanwhile, their President has frequently talked about evil Israel "ceasing to exist," which is something that most of the middle east fantasizes about, but states they want nuclear power rather than weapons. US intelligence believes Iran stopped pursuing a nuclear weapon in 2003, while continuing to seek low-level enriched uranium for power plants, but US policymakers sympathize with Israel's desire to keep Iran's capabilities at a minimum, i.e. below even that required for peaceful purposes. I can imagine how poorly this must be received, and how hypocritical we must appear.

    Iran could not destroy Israel without impunity, even if they counted on other countries not to really nuke on Israel's behalf, given that Israel likely has nukes on their Dolphin class subs. So is all of this a ruse and they're really that crazy? I doubt it. Maybe we could promise to nuke their entire country and every muslim holy site if they do nuke Israel and call it a day. Trying to keep them in the stone-age will only stoke the conflict.

    Their supreme religious leaders also said it is OK to wipe out 8 million infidels. Are they crazy? You decide.

    Most people would call that evil. I call it religion. Crazy would be attempting to achieve that without realizing that it would end up being counterproductive in the sense that they and all they hold dear in the world would be obliterated as well.

    Almost a year ago I did a thread that said Iran will attack Israel with a nuke, however they and their allies will be destroyed. Actually two thirds of their attackers and they will die as per prophesy. The blood will be as high as three to four feet in some areas. Guess who the bible says the allies of Iran or a middle-eastern nation are (in the first attack) against Israel? Russia! Christians already know what is going to happen. Then after this first slaughter an even bigger one will occur, its called Armageddon....

    I don't see Russia's motive for getting that directly involved. Russia might prefer Iran to Israel, but attacking/nuking Israel? There's no gain in that for Russia. Russia would sit there and watch Iran die, shrug, and figure out what its best interests are in the changed conditions.

    And there is nothing wrong with Russian technology at all. It is different then that used by the US, and fits their tactical operations plan. That does not make it better or worse, only different.

    However, you should also realize that Russian tactical doctrine generally uses a mass-wave tactic. And Iran does not have the "legs" to conduct such an operation against Israel (nor more then Israel can conduct one against Iran).

    And to conduct such an attack, they would have to cross the borders of other nations that are allies of Israel. Or do you really think that Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Jordan would turn a blind eye if they tried this?

    Nice try though, but once again you seem to have absolutely no clue what most of us actually look at in here.

    Besides, how could it be "Russian technology", when most of their strike aircraft inventory is stull US made? Even their domestic production are essentially copies of US aircraft (the Saeqeh and Azarakhsh are copies of the F-5).

    And their missiles are largely copies of Soviet technology, that is true. But these are patterned after the SCUD. And this is really nothing but a Soviet made copy of the V-1.

    So in reality, if you mean their missiles, that is not Russian technology, but German technology.

    Hehehehehe..., you REALLY think so???

    http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion...-israel-iran-nuclear-20120225,0,6848944.story
    There is a vital difference between a nuclear-armed Israel and a nuclear-armed Iran: The Iranian regime is bad. It assaulted and murdered its own people following President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's fraudulent reelection in 2009. It supports terrorists beyond its own borders, including against Israel. The regime is also mad; it has threatened Israel's destruction.

    But Israel, even when massively attacked by Syrian and Egyptian forces in 1973, has never used nuclear weapons, which it has had for more than 40 years. Israel has never threatened its neighbors with destruction. Though it may have a hawkish right-wing government in power, Israel has always been (and is now) run by rational, sane leaders who would never use nuclear weapons unless faced with apocalyptic circumstances.

    But you think Israel will sit by if Iran lanches on her??? Iran can bend over and kiss her butt goodby if she ever does such a stupid thing.

    I tried checking for verification of this in Fars but couldn't find it. Can you show me where it is reported in that source?

    We saw the laughable (if not for the human losses) prowess of Russian technology against the technology of the USA and west in the tank and other battles of Iraq wars.

    I'm still waiting for proof from Fars but have yet to receive an answer from any of you. Is there a very real possibility that you have quoted yet another pro war bogus article?
