Center for Strategic & International Studies: A military strike by Israel against Iranian Nuclear Facilities is possible and the optimum route would be along the Syrian-Turkish border then over a small portion of Iraq then into Iran, and back the same route. However, the number of aircraft required, refueling along the way and getting to the targets without being detected or intercepted would be complex and high risk and would lack any assurances that the overall mission will have a high success rate>>>

Do Israelis
by Crazy_Israelis (not verified) on Thu Mar 26, 2009 07:18 AM PDTReally want a war with Iran? Because they must know that their actions means war and possibly the end of Israel.
Well said
by AryamehrNYC on Thu Mar 26, 2009 07:18 AM PDTMr. Neyrizi,
Thank you for your insight. There are not to many people who can convey an objective message like you have regarding Iran & Israel.
The uneducated ones whom are blinded by Islam are the only ones that spew hatred. As history has shown, our two cultures share a rich history with one another. It is only because of this "hiccup" called Islam, and the illiterate mullahs who spread its lies, that animosity has been created between our two lands.
Wake up Iranians, our real enemy is the one who forced Islam on our ancestors and their descendants: the Mullahs. They are the ones that want Iran to fail.
Khak tou saretoun for not seeing this...
JAVID IRAN!
Threatening Iran?
by Daryush on Thu Mar 26, 2009 06:48 AM PDTDon't make me come and silly slap your tiny little crab called land.
Reminds me of the joke about the little ant trying to screw an elephant. God keep us patient about these little buggers. la elaha ela lah, what can I say?
That would be too stupid
by Alborzi (not verified) on Thu Mar 26, 2009 06:38 AM PDTYou know Israel is not stupid, it knows very well
that such an attack will be too costly. Anyone who take
such a possibility realistic is just stupid. Whoever did this study, must be not Iranian or a Jew, maybe an Arab or American.
Attention deficit?
by XerXes (not verified) on Thu Mar 26, 2009 06:02 AM PDTEvery once in a while when the Israelis don't get any bad publicity, they make another headline by showing their true evil cause.
Poor things, as we say in Persian, God saw the donkey that didn't give him horns. Thank God for humanity that Israel is a tiny pea country. Imagine if they were a real country, then what?
Nowruz be merry to all Iranians

by Arash78 (not verified) on Wed Mar 25, 2009 11:03 PM PDTGosh, aren't you- and people like you- tired of repeating the same old nonsense over and over and over and over again?!!! Do you even hear your own delusional cliches anymore or it it just like a record that automatically starts playing whenever you hear certain keywords?
Do you truly believe that those brave young Iranians who fought for 8 years against Saddam's army and lost their lives and got mutilated and breathed mustard gas to save YOU and YOUR family and YOUR country and YOUR honor did so for "plastic keys to heaven"??!! How ungrateful and shameless of you. How dare you reduce their valuable sacrifices to an immoral political propaganda like that?!
The memory of those brave Iranian soldiers will always be honored and cherished in the hearts of every true Iranian. As for the delusional ones in L.A and other such places, they can keep hating their own people and keep lying and distorting historical facts to suit their egoistic political agendas. They are too insignificant to matter anyway.

Don't Fall For the Propaganda
by Amir Khosro Neyrizi on Wed Mar 25, 2009 08:48 PM PDT1. Iran & Israel have no historical animosity, or territorial dispute. Iran does have territorial and historical dispute with every so called "Muslim brother country" with which it shares a land or water border.
2. Our newly found "Palestinian brothers" supported their then brother Saddam in his invasion of Iran. Hundreds of Palestinians along with other Arab mercenaries were taken as POWs during the Iran-Iraq war. The Islamic regime kept this quiet for obvious reasons.
3. Palestinian Authority and Hamas support UAE's claim on the two Persian Gulf Islands.
4. Some of us still remember the maps published just before Iraq's invasion of Iran, by George Habbash's Popular Palestinian Front, calling Khuzestan "Northern Arabia"!
5. Iran and Jews share a relationship going back over 2500 years, without a single war (not counting the forced conversion of Jews by Muslim mobs, every now & then!)
6. Jews in Iran kept the Persian language and music alive after the Arab invasion.7. Israel, before the revolution, was instrumental in expanding drip water irrigation, which is of vital importance in water staved Iran, exported hundreds of specially bred cows to Iran (which incidentally are the parents of most of the dairy cows in Iran). These cows were specially bred in Israel to adapt to dry conditions with high milk production.8. The only country that took military action against Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war was Israel by destroying Osirak nuclear plant, preventing any possibility of Saddam getting his hands on anything cose to an A-bomb. I
n short, Iran and Israel's long term strategic interests converge and the current war of words is fanned by anti-Iranian elements who would benefit from such a conflict. Just look at the current state of Iran-US relationships: who has benefitted the most: The Persian Gulf countries, especially United Arab Emirates.
Wake up people and smell the coffee, you are directing your anger at the wrong country! While Russia has practically taken over most of the Caspian sea, Kuwait & Qatar are stealing Gas & Oil fright rom under our soil (the same countries that gave billions of dollars to Saddam to rain missiles on us & devestate our country). You are all falling for the Islamic Regime's propaganda. This how the Islamic regime has staye in power for 30 years!When was the last time any of you protested Russia's take-over of the Caspian sea or Qatar stealing Gas & Oil from Iran?
To Arash78
by Iranyvaliazad on Wed Mar 25, 2009 08:27 PM PDTA few points for you and likes of you ..
1) People in Iran are forced to study arabic and arabic has become the major language ... listen to every stinking moslem cleric speech and you will hear the speech starts in arabic. Take a look at pictures from any official gatherings and ceremonies and you will see arabic text all over the place and not Parsi. So, you see it wasn't saddam who force arabic on Iran, it is nasty moslem clerics.
2) Thousands of young Iranians lost their lives not because they were saving the nation, but rather they lost their lives because ayatooleh Hendi-zadhe wanted Karbala and to achieve his goals, he sent wave after waves of under trained young soldiers without any air support, or artilary support to face Iraqi machine guns. You haven't forgotten about plastic keys to heaven, have you? Many young soldiers lost their lives unnecessary and I curse moslem clerics as long as there is a breath in me because of that.
3) moslem clerics are doing exactly what an invading country would do to Iran ... Impose their rule .... kill the ciitzens without any justification .... rape and pillage .... steal national resources ... no freedom ...
4) You are the ungrateful soul who subscribes to bunch of nasty moslem clerics whose hands are stained with blood of thousands of Iranians instead of supporting Iranian to gain their freedom.

by mrlayl on Wed Mar 25, 2009 08:22 PM PDTBardia bakhshandeh.....Did you watch the video? there was no use of aircraft mentioned. Rather Jericho rockets by Israel and Shahab by Iran. I don't think either side has the capabiliy to defend against missiles. Regardless, like all wars it will be fruitless and will cost 1,000s of lives on both sides.
Israel's war against Iran is psychological! can't do it by war!
by gol-dust on Wed Mar 25, 2009 07:56 PM PDTIsrael can only fight against helpless women and children after putting them in a cage in Gaza! They can kiss my hairy ass!
Of course, if they dare, they can only use rockets, but we are not sitting dock, we are gonna fight till Israel is destroyed! They cannot destroy Iran by dropping a few bombs! Their choice!
As they are trying to scare off the defensless Palestinians? Lift a finger on Iran, Iranians would make them regret! They forgot the Romans? They could all go back to Russia or the red sea!
Are you kidding me?
by Saman on Wed Mar 25, 2009 06:55 PM PDTIDF barely withstands a ragtag team of sandal wearing Arab teenage punks tossing shoes. Even then, mighty IDF has to play dirty and kill innocent women and children in a crap hole place like Gaza. The stinky mullahs are the king of dirt!

NO WAY
by Bardia bakhshandeh (not verified) on Wed Mar 25, 2009 04:46 PM PDTThe F-15 and F16 and even the F-18 can't accomplish this mission. The iranian Airdefence has basically created a no fly zone over iran. They will intercepted and shot down.
The only plane that can accomplish this task is the F-22 Raptor. The congress passed a law that the F-22 is not to be sold to any foreign county.
That's why the israelis are trying to force the congress to change this law so they can obtain some of these bad boys.
However, Israel can't stomach seeing thousands of their civilians dead due to iranian shahabs and they have no defence agains this patiular Solid Fuel Shahab missles that iran has been making.
Israel's days are numbered. They can bomb and kill women and childre but they lack the balls to attack iran.
Marge, our message to Israelies is "come on make my day"
by irandoust (not verified) on Wed Mar 25, 2009 04:42 PM PDTIsraelies are bunch of cowards who attack women and
children but they are afraid to attack Iran. You can't compare Iran with Syria. Iran is a powerhouse in Middle East. It was during the Shah's time with the backing of United States and it is a regional power now with the backing of Iranian Patriots, the same ones who walked over mines to defeat Saddam and his backers. Israelies are a bunch of racist land grabbing Zionists and don't have the courage to mess around with the lion's tail.

by Norooz (not verified) on Wed Mar 25, 2009 04:41 PM PDTIf Israel attacks Iran they'll send few Shahab missles back towards Israel. Now take it from there.
Forget about big band theory and evolution and Kouroush and all that.
Simple what will Israel do when a big missle hits smack in the middle of downtown Tel Aviv? and these naughty Shahabs are not your grand father's Scuds.
To Iranyvaliazad
by Arash78 (not verified) on Wed Mar 25, 2009 04:12 PM PDTIf it wasn't for those young Iranians who threw themselves in front of machine guns, you would be sitting beneath a picture of Saddam on your bedroom wall and speaking Arabic by now.
Shame on you for being so ungrateful!
Patriots
by Iranyvaliazad on Wed Mar 25, 2009 04:02 PM PDTSending thousands of young Iranians in front of Iraqi machine guns in order to capture Karbala for sake of great evil, the ayatooleh Hedi-zadeh" is no sign of patriotism. disregards for young Iranian lives by msolem clerics during the war was a good indication that fascist moslem don't care for Iran ... as long as their ideology and cult remains strong and on top.
Israel's Erection over Attacking Iran
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Wed Mar 25, 2009 03:26 PM PDTIrandoust....Are you sure? ALTHOUGH this conflict is pretty "high profile", I wonder if it would matter so much. Israel has an erection for such an attack no doubt because when they did it to Syria, nobody said a damned thing. I know we think we are much better than Syria and that Iran is very elevated and the cradle of the big bang and evolution, but who will really help Iran. Is Israel as broke as the rest of the world? I don't think anyone will lift a finger unless it means to make some quick money before Bill O'Reilly can step in and slam them for being "patrons of Iran".
