everybody is too powerful now, weapons are too far reaching, the media outlets everywhere, the only wars left to be fought will be skirmishes between superpowers and small peon countries who get out of line. A war like Israel vs Iran would be a world ender and it would be the last of the modern world as we know it. I dont think anybody has the balls to get into something like that now, not even russia or china. I think the OP is absolutely right. |

Well I was thinking that the absolute last ditch attempt would be either in the post-election transition period or in the opening days of Obama's presidency. But it looks like the boat has sailed on that as well. Therefore, I'd be surprised if anything happened without some sort of major development. |

Many of you talk about Iran as if this country is a backward country waiting to be bombed by a so called modern day nation of Israel. Iran is the most powerful nation in the region, yet they have not attacked another country for 100's of years. They hold total control economically in the gulf regions. They have been under world sanctions for 30 years and not only they can hold their heads above water but are able to infulence decisions made by other nations as far as Israel. They manifacture theri own arms. The only country in the region that makes their own tanks, missiles, sats (soon to be launched), fighter jets, subs, etc etc.
The only country in the region that is producing their own nuclear fuel and have the capability to do so. All this despite 30 years of sanctions.
These guys are very very powerful in terms of stratigic understanding and playing economic and war games. And BTW, did you know that out of 193 countries in the UN, 157 support Iran in its nuclear drive as well as their power in the region?
Iran also has clear influence in Iraq, Afganistan, Pakistan, Qatar, UAE, Turkey, most nation above its boarders by Russia, Lebenon, Syria, Palestine, African nations and her allies and friends include India, China and Russia.
This post is not about supporting Iran. It is about realisation that Iran is not a petty backward country that is just sitting there waiting to be attacked when Israel feels like it.
Take a moment and look. Iran is actually bringing Israel to its knees trickle by trickle and Israel doesn't even know it. |

About 400 years to be more exact.
'Tis all about the energy and control of the region. One just needs to look at history (for those who are unaware):

Netanyahu says Iran will not get hands on nukes
JERUSALEM (AP) — Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's leading candidate for prime minister, said Saturday that Iran "will not be armed with a nuclear weapon."
In an interview with Israel's Channel 2 TV, Netanyahu said if elected prime minister his first mission will be to thwart the Iranian nuclear threat. Netanyahu, the current opposition leader and head of the hardline Likud party, called Iran the greatest danger to Israel and to all humanity.
When asked if stopping Iran's nuclear ambitions included a military strike, he replied: "It includes everything that is necessary to make this statement come true."
Iran has denied it is seeking to acquire nuclear weapons and says it is pursuing nuclear power for peaceful uses. It also denies it is engaged in terrorism, instead accusing Israel of terrorist policies against the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, which were occupied by Israel after the 1967 Mideast War.
The Channel 2 TV broadcast interviewed all three candidates for prime minister ahead of the Feb. 10 election. The three did not debate each other and appeared one after the other to answer questions posted by Israelis in YouTube videos.
Tzipi Livni of Kadima and Ehud Barak of Labor were both asked about how they intended to deal with the continuing rocket threat from Hamas militants in Gaza. Both took a hard line.
"Hamas was hit like it was never hit before," Barak, the defense minister, said. "If they try us again, they will be hit again."
Israeli launched a massive three-week offensive against Gaza militants on Dec. 27 to stop eight years of near-daily militant rocket fire at southern Israeli towns. Nearly 1,300 Palestinians were killed in the fighting, about half of them civilians, according to the Palestinian Center for Human Rights. Thirteen Israelis were also killed, three of them civilians.
Livni, the foreign minister, said if Hamas "hasn't gotten the message yet" Israel would strike it again.
Regardless, she said Hamas could not be negotiated with and called on the people of Gaza to overthrow their regime.
"I do not intend to reach any agreements with Hamas. Agreements I make with people who accept my existence," she said. "They do not recognize Israel and do not renounce violence and terrorism. They will not be a party to an agreement and therefore the people of Gaza have to expel the Hamas from within them."

Applicable here as well...note Ephraim Sneh's, one of Israel's most distinguished generals and now Olmert's deputy defense minister (from 2006), remark in bold:
The Trap of Recognizing Israel
by Jonathan Cook
December 16, 2006
<SNIP>
Israel has been leading the attempts to characterize the Iranian regime as profoundly anti-Semitic, and its presumed ambitions for nuclear weapons as directed by the sole goal of wanting to "wipe Israel off the map" – a calculatedly mischievous mistranslation of Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's speech.
Most observers have assumed that Israel is genuinely concerned for its safety from nuclear attack, however implausible the idea that even the most fanatical Muslim regime would, unprovoked, launch nuclear missiles against a small area of land that contains some of Islam's holiest sites, in Jerusalem.
But in truth there is another reason why Israel is concerned about a nuclear-armed Iran that has nothing to do with conventional ideas about safety.
Last month, Ephraim Sneh, one of Israel's most distinguished generals and now Olmert's deputy defense minister, revealed that the government's primary concern was not the threat posed by Ahmadinejad firing nuclear missiles at Israel but the effect of Iran's possession of such weapons on Jews who expect Israel to have a monopoly on the nuclear threat.
If Iran got such weapons, "Most Israelis would prefer not to live here; most Jews would prefer not to come here with families, and Israelis who can live abroad will ... I am afraid Ahmadinejad will be able to kill the Zionist dream without pushing a button. That's why we must prevent this regime from obtaining nuclear capability at all costs."
In other words, the Israeli government is considering either its own preemptive strike on Iran or encouraging the United States to undertake such an attack – despite the terrible consequences for global security – simply because a nuclear-armed Iran might make Israel a less attractive place for Jews to live, lead to increased emigration and tip the demographic balance in the Palestinians' favor.
Regional and possibly global war may be triggered simply to ensure that Israel's "existence" as a state that offers exclusive privileges to Jews continues.
For all our sakes, we must hope that the Palestinians and their Hamas government continue refusing to "recognize Israel's right to exist."

Afraid of what? That Israel will launch a nuclear first strike on somebody? There's a possibility - but it's fantastically remote, in my opinion.
War with Iran? Well, it hasn't happened yet - but it's still damn sure more likely than the above scenario, again, in my opinion.

Of course Israel will never attack Iran, they wanted the United States to do it for them. But even George Bush realized it would be WWIII if he did so. And I don't believe our country will ever attack Iran unless they attack us first, in a clear cut manner like Japan hitting Pearl Harbor. |

And based on all the factors weighed equally and your reasoning, there is a fantastically remote possibility that Iran will do the same.
It's not a conflation; it's applying the same reasoning to another party.
