If Israel Strikes Iran, Will it Go All In?

"Go All In?" Well that means nuclear war, doesn't it?
Mainstream media seems really hellbent on producing the first global revolution.
Do you realize how sick it is to write articles like this?

To paraphase Albert Einstein: I don't know what weapons will be used in WW3, but WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones.

Thats when when world war 3 will really get hot it's already started.

I want to know when Israel attacks since the stock markets will tank at least 25 percent or more that day.

The author of this article is obviously ignorant of geography. He says that Israel wouldn't want to risk a ground war with Iran, which is physically impossible anyway. The only way for Israel to have a ground war with Iran is to go through Syria or Jordan, then through Iraq. Any route that they take to Iran, they would have to go through two international borders. This person has no business writing about anything if they're not even willing to look at a map.

Am I missing something here. Did'nt we attack Iraq for fear of Nuclear weapons. What i do not understand is why Israel would act alone and not go with the U.N. as a group.

Seems to me everytime things settle down the news comes out with a threat so the government will not have to lower the military budget. Sure helps raising the price of oil also.

Those allies won't be Arab or Muslims. To them, siding with Israel to attack Iran, even if it's in their own best interest, would be an infamia. It would take an extra-terrestrial invasion for any Arab nation to side with Israel and even then I doubt it would happen. France, Great Britain and the US are far more likely allies than Saudi Arabia, Lebanon or Jordan. They may all do business with Israel in the wee hours of the morning, when the clouds hide moonlight and no one is walking in the street, but that's about it. The fallout from a proposed attack by Israel & Partners, would be far-reaching. All Arab countries would condemn it. Pakistan would have a kitten and Afghanistan would become Pakistan's new bff. Israel would be brought up by the ICC and the UN would censure Israel. The big question is what will China and Russia do?

Have you looked at a map recently? How could Israel possibly get into a land war with Iran-- by invading Saudi Arabia or Jordan first? And Israel needs a sure thing? Was destroying Iraq's nuclear reactor a sure thing?

All Iran got to do is to build their bomb in Russia, then, what do you do? It's wrong,
Nuclear weapons are wrong; all must get rid of them.

I see the comments by others angry that Israel would even contemplate an attack. Imagine if Mexico was the fanatical country and noted that they wanted to wipe the USA off the map and were developing nuclear weapons. You can bet the farm that, like Kennedy in 1963, that Obama would pre-emptively attack Mexico even with the pacifist leon Panetta crying like a baby

WW3 unfortunatly might actually happen I just wonder that if it does which countries are on which side

ground war with iran, can israel do it alone

Iran dont need a nuke just missiles that carrys a dirty bomb. And if they want to hurt the world all they need to do is sink a few oil tankers.

Going all in with missiles (to avoid a ground war) to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons means arming those missiles with - nuclear weapons...

Stupid article. Equating a #$%$ Israeli conscript's visit to Las Vegas, and all along equating the very existence of a nuclear Iran to a casus belli, worthy of a war, is downright crazy. With thinly-veiled propaganda pieces like this, is it any wonder that the average American equates the Jewish presence in the US as a pro-Israel lobby? Countless Jewish writers drop similar, adulatory pieces in every significant publication, Leftist or Rightist, slowly conditioning Americans from across the political spectrum to inevitable war with Iran. Beware of such insidious attempts, and analyze the facts for yourselves. Where is the threat from an Iran with barely a nuclear bomb. The US has 6000, Israel has 400. How could Iran hope to survive a stupid move like attacking Israel? When have the Iranians ever waged war on their neighbors? On the US? Why have we always meddled in Iranian affairs - 1953 CIA toppling of Mossadeq, propping up the Shah? Sanction after sanction, for what? For daring to build a power plant that one country fears could be repurposed to enrich Uranium?Get real people - the same people that brought us the Iraq War are now at it again. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

Most of you fail to realize that though Iran is not armed with nuclear weapons yet, they have a significant supply of missiles. Israel is very small, and would be easy to defeat for Iran, here is an example, take a can of spray paint and paint a motorcycle, then paint a bus, which is easier to cover? Iran would be very difficult for Israel to defeat in a "missile war". Israel would avoid nuclear reactions at all costs because Pakistan would retaliate with their nukes, India would say 'not my problem' and stay out of it. As for how america would react, well Obama would be between a rock and a hard place, people would be #$%$ with heavy military involvement so he would lose a lot of votes for involving us in yet another expensive war shortly before elections, yet he would lose AIPAC votes and campaign funds, so what would most likely happen is that the US govt would supply israel with boat loads of cash and missiles, intelligence, and maybe a small military involvement. Israel has had difficulty defending itself against small rocket attacks from Hizbullah, they would have a hell of a time dealing with Iran, not to mention that iran has an army of 3,833,000 while Israel's military is about 749,000 so worst case scenario for Iran, they would just simply overwhelm Israel with pure numbers, Israel may want to avoid a "ground attack" but that alone does not keep Iran from keeping it as an option. With the number of powers at play here (Iran, Israel, US, UK, Russia, China, Pakistan, Lebanon, Turkey, just to name the few that come to mind) this could easily spark into a world conflict, and with the number of troops involved (Russia, China, Pakistan, US, and Iran are all in the top 10 for most populated militaries of 2011) it could result in significant amount of casualties. The best bet for us who don't really have much of a say in the matter is to hope it never happens, for those who do, to avoid it at all costs. Couldn't Israel just send Iran a fruit basket and Iran send a thank you card, no one remembers how to be good neighbors anymore, too much pride and arrogance involved in politics, and too many lives at risk for people to just save face, doesn't make sense anymore, the world has gone to hell.

Isreal does not have the guts to pre-emptively attack Iran. But if the devil pushes them into a bellicose move, then it is on record that they have been promised a serious retaliation which will guarantee ther evacuation of isreal too

So let them place their own bets. America does'nt have anymore suckers to do the betting for them. As they say at the door, "Good Luck"

95% of the populations from both Israel and Iran are simply good folk trying to get by. It is the leadership in both countries that put the other 95% in jeopardy for reasons of personal power, ego, greed or some misguided pride in the customs of their ancient tribal forbearers.

In general, most people are willing to live in peace as long as they are left in peace. Then there is the other 5% that seek power. They are going to ruin it for all of us.
