#2 If we must attack at some point, then this leaves no doubt that we must use enough force to totally cripple Iran's capacity to retaliate.

After issuing threats like this they no longer have any right to play the sympathy card.

#3 Iran will launch missile attack on Israel unless the Sun stops rising in the East.

#4 Let's hope Israel has a leader with enough balls to respond appropriately if they do. PS-it ain't Olmert!

#6 Don't forget all the local mosques. I am sure there are some peasants with pitchforks and fire who could form a militia to deal with vampire nests.

#7 I think the Patriots and Arrows would do well if Iran tried. And the counter-strike would be of biblical wrath.

#8 Tens of thousands of missiles? All hyperboly aside, I seriously doubt if Iran has one thousand missiles that could reach Israel.

Besides which, for every ten missiles Iran (or any of their proxies) launches we should respond with a single one, preferably a MIRVed ICBM.

Match that, Iran.

#11 Funny, I don't hear the Israelis begging the US not to act.

#12 Iran: Tehran Would Launch Missile Attack On Israel In The Case Of U.S. Strike

This is a desperate threat from a government with a weak (external) military. A government with a strong military would just go after those responsible with a proportional response, but delusional islamonuts wouldn't appreciate the difference.

#13 In probably less then 10 minutes later, everything within a 5 mile radius of the launch point will either be a huge crater or a glass mirror. Tehran would probably follow shortly after. I don't think that the Iranian leadership is that anxious to meet the 72 virgins.

If they were logical - I would agree with you -- but they are religious nuts.
