I'd guess a terrible mistake by an Iranian scientist brings the whole facility crashing down.
If that fails, they'd carpet bomb those goat fuckers back to the Persian Empire. |

The Obama administration has decided to allow Iran to get the bomb.
Israel will not. This will get interesting. I think Israel will do it soon enough so as not to be too close the 2014 US Congressional elections.

My theory is Israel is done with the US, they've already discussed this in secret with the Saudis, Oman, Bahrain, Turkey and Jordan, and they're all agreed--Iran must go. Only the big Shiite states want Iran to be powerful. The Sunni states are ready to do something, and if Israel will do it for them, so much the better. But I'm no expert, and I've never been to the Mid East.

Iran's been six months from getting the bomb for years.
Israel already has the bomb. They'd be fools to attack Israel. |

Israelis will strike when they deem necessary...as they have over 100 nukes....and could completely obliterate Iran anytime they wanted too...
FWIW they have been assassinating their nuke scientists and computer geeks left and right as best as they can... |

When they are certain someone has a weapon or they can't stop one from being made.
I'm sure they know the exact state if Irans nuke program and as long as they can make a scientist go boom here and there to keep things from happening they will hold off. |

If they are going to go it's going to have to be soon.
As capable as the IDF and the Israeli Airforce are, a strike to take out Iran's uranium enrichment facilities doesn't really play to their strengths. I'd not even sure they have the required equipment, not having any sort of serious bomber force capable of carrying bunker buster bombs of the required size. I just don't believe that the F15 Strike Eagle is the right tool for this. I hope I'm wrong and they do have the wherewithal to carry out this mission, but the world shouldn't depend on Israel to do the heavy lifting on an issue with such global implications. |

Israel's nuclear weapons might be a successful deterrent against Iran using their bomb, but it won't be a deterrent against Iran getting the bomb in the first place. That would require a significant conventional strike. |

If you can't drop a very large bunker buster (or go to a nuclear bunker buster), you really just can't do them any damage. I think we're talking about something on the order of a Tallboy or Grandslam or larger here. Say 10,000 to 20,000 lbs or more. Israel just doesn't have anything in their inventory that can carry something that large. I suppose if you're prepared to take very large losses you might convert cargo or commercial aircraft to the task, but definitely not an optimal delivery system. |

Iran is far enough away from Iran and have dispersed their assets/targets well enough that I don't think the Israelis can stop the Iranians. I think the answer to the Iranian bomb problem is to simply destroy their economy. "Simply" is probably a bit of an understatement. The quickest way would be to put up a naval blockade on the Iranians and shut off their money (i.e. unrest in the streets by the part of the population that isn't enamored with the ruling religious government.) Or we can hope that the current sanctions eventually work. |

The problem is that there is no political will in this administration for that and Israel doesn't have the forces to enforce a blockade on it's on. And if we're waiting on the "international community" to do it we might as well be waiting on unicorns. |

We didn't have to accept a nuclear armed Cuba. You have to either destroy the ability or make the process to that end goal more painful than what it's worth. I think the targets are so well dispersed that it would take a protacted campaign to destroy it. Israel doesn't have the ability and we don't have the will. That means that we have to go after something else - the ability of the country to survive....economically. |
