Will Israel Strike Iran's Nuclear Site?

Today I watched an analysis of just how dangerous these times really are. FoxNewsNetwork provided an overview of the situation. For those who have strayed from watching the news for whatever reason, it appears that Israel has warned Iran that they must cease and desist from completing their nuclear program or they will bomb the site.  It is estimated that Iran will be making plutonium in one year or less.  Iran has responded that if Israel strikes, they will close the Straits of Hormuz (sp?).  The U.S. has responded that if Iran closes the Straits, that would be considered an act of war and WE will respond accordingly.  The analysts have said that if Israel waits, until after the U.S. election, they cannot be certain of Obama's reaction...i.e. support.  McCain, a republican, would, most certainly, support Israel.  It is my opinion that each and every one of us would support Israel in going after Ahmadinejad and his threats....however, with the oil problem as it is, it is estimated gasoline at the pumps will shoot to between $8 and $10 per gallon.  If Iran closes the Straits, not one drop of oil will come out of the middle east. That leaves us with Canadian oil, U.S. oil, Mexico and possibly Venezuela.  I am heartened that McCain is in Colombia...even though it is said he is discussing "trade" matters.  Question....we all fear WWIII starting in the middle east....but, until we have gotten our act together, do we have the troops and weaponry to take on Iran? Can we afford NOT to?

COOL!! Israelis Bomb the Nuke plants in Iran. When the smoke clears, much of the US fleet is anchored off the Iranian coast to escort US TANKERS in the process of taking Iranian oil.

That bigmouth moron in south america should take note!

AveMaria; You MUST understand and know deep in your heart that the media when not reporting on actual news has to CREATE NEWS! The fact that Israel might have a plan to wipe out Iran's nuclear capability and the actual execution of the plan are two entirely different things.

The U.S. had a plan for fighting the Japanese in WWII long before the Japanese ever attacked us. It would be naive (sp?) and dumb to wait until something happens before we create a contingency plan... don't you think? The Israeli's are the same, as are most modern countries. Plans are created, evolved, updated and practiced and shelved then they are evolved, updated and practice and shelved and yet again they are evolved, updated, practiced and shelved. This is how we keep our military, and most other countries as well, keep their military occupied and "prepared" for possible hostile activity.

The fact that FOX News suddenly reports something that is actually an over-emphasis of the obvious is ludicrous to be taken as "news". It just isn't so.

These kinds of plans are part of being a prudent and prepared nation. Don't you hope the U.S. has plans "just-in-case" also?

For Y3Ye, I couldn't agree more if that's what it comes to it's not actually stealing if you're exploiting a military victory! That's why there's supposed to be a difference between the Victor and the Vanquished.

Y3...Good morning sweets. Cort...Yes, I know that scenarios and "plans" and "massaged plans" and revolving plans....are ongoing. I love this one because it brings forward a very real possibility that everyone can understand. If Iran blocked the Strait of Hormuz, and zero oil leaves the middle east, you KNOW Israel and the U.S. would be joined by the rest of the world in putting Iran out of business..i.e. Israel and the U.S. would not be alone...the rest of the world would be screaming for oil as well. I hope Red Adair's company is still in business. Before Israel bombs, have we considered the fact that if they wait too long there will be radiation from the site, which could preclude getting ANY oil out of the country? Note that I have not expressed concern for the people. I think I'm getting as tough as you guys.

May 7, 1981 Israel bombed the Iraqi Nuclear reactor at Osirak. At the time Iraq was a signer to the Nuclear Non-proliferation treaty, (Israel was not and still is not) they were under international inspections (Israel and the United States were not and are not), and they were a sovereign country with defined borders attacked preemptivily without provocation (sound familiar).

The newly reformed ex-terrorists leaders of the state of Israel Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Rabin ordered the air strike using Americian supplied F-16 and F-15 fighters to the Israeli air force.

The reason they went in was because intelligence reports said Iraq was trying to acquire aluminum rods (never proven) for the purpose of processing nuclear material into weapons (sound familiar).

As we have seen history repeats itself, 1981 Iraq, 2008 Iran, that's why we should be always wary of Israel.

And Y3Y3 renember the US salior's who's lives were lost on The USS Liberty we should always be wary of Israel.

Pinky...I saw a program on TV about the USS Liberty some few years ago...it was so tragic. It is hard to believe no one speaks of the Liberty.. this is a story everyone should become very familiar with. Thanks for mentioning it to this group. How are you, by the way? Haven't seen you around lately...we've all missed you.

Missed reading your comments also along with everyone else's. It's rare I get a day off or the free time. I'm blessed with an overabundance of work, in these hard time I'm not complaining.

Admire good people, great jokes, most critters and love learning new things. Don't like tax and insurance forms, thieves and liars, and people with closed minds.
