JERUSALEM, April 7, (Agencies): An Israeli government minister warned on Monday that Israel would respond to any Iranian attack by destroying that country, public radio reported. “An Iranian attack against Israel would trigger a tough reaction that would lead to the destruction of the Iranian nation,” National Infrastruc-ture Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer said in remarks of rare virulence. “Iranians are aware of our strength but continue to provoke us by arming their Syrian allies and Hezbollah,” he said during a meeting at his ministry. Ben-Eliezer, a member of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s security cabinet, stressed however that the Iranians were unlikely to attack as “they understand the meaning of such an act.”
Last month, Defence Minister Ehud Barak told visiting US Vice- President Dick Cheney that “no option” would be ruled out in Israel’s bid to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Ben-Eliezer also stressed that an ongoing five-day home front defence exercise was not meant to threaten Israel’s neighbours, but stressed that “the scenarios considered in the exercise could be reality tomorrow.” Iran on Monday ruled out halting or limiting sensitive nuclear work in exchange for trade and other incentives from major powers and instead suggested it may announce new developments in the programme this week. Iran marks its National Day of Nuclear Technology on April 8, an occasion President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad used last year to proclaim industrial uranium enrichment capacity.
the best army against 'Israel' won't be made of Arabs.. Arabs barely make18-20% of Muslims as is... as for laying in a 'waste land' what can I say -- how amusing it would be to see the aftermath of a so precise a nuclear holocaust that it should destory all their neighbors but spare them, given that they are right smack in the middle of it all? perhaps they can build a resistant bubble over their heads and live in the 'peace' they so desire it for centuries to come, until their 'promised one' comes and finds that fortress from my tax dollar....
I am amused though why they are going around planting غرقد Gharqad (Boxthorn) if they are so powerful....
Eh, Tomorrow isn't far behind...

it would be completely insane for any country to use nukes as radiation knows no borders.
israel and the u.s. really do seem to be itching to attack iran - i find this a really scary scenario.
wouldn't it be cool if israel and iran gave up their nukes? wouldn't be cool if we all did?
dreams.
imagine wishing somebody "happy National Day of Nuclear Technology"!!!! that's quite a mouthful. make an interesting hallmark card, tho.
each man thinks of his own fleas as gazelles

If Israel is invaded and they are losing, (in a complete turnround of history) to simultanious attacks from the Arab dictatorships surrounding them in yet another war.
They will pop their nukes.
That wont be a "Good fight on their hands"
Conventionally it would be a fair fight, the Arab world against the Tiny Israeli nation.
But if it did turn bad,(unlikely based on the muppetry of the Arab armies) theres no fairness. Simply the end of the middle east as a human inhabited area.
Sacred mosque sites, churches and temples. All reduced to dust.
Hmmm.

Hah. The day Israel destroys even a single sacred mosque will be its last day. They wouldn't be facing just a few nations, that is an attack on a religion, a religion of over a billion. That day, even I would be forced to donn the weapons of armed resistance.
If Israel destroyed sacred Hindu, Sikh, or Christian sites, I would expect the same angry resistance.
Like we have discussed in may many threats. Islam is not about violence. Quite the contrary. BUT when Israel opens a war on our religion. That shifts our obligatory Jihad from being verbal and scholarly resistance to actual armed resistance.
I think if you blew up any christian site youd get a massive shrug of the shoulders and a "Heh...its only a few bricks...hope nobody was hurt"

Yeah. Ok try it.
Canterbury and St Pauls cathederal were bombed by the Krauts in 1940. No great shakes.
What I'm getting at is the west dosnt give a monkeys about religion these days, and thos who do are fast losing ground in the face of facts.
They wont bother about a few buidings.
Ask any christian you like. go on, fire away, take a survay. Ask them what they would rather see destroyed.
A Holy Christian Relic or a human life.
Have fun. The survay will never happen but meh.
I havnt much time for christians faith, but they value life over stones.

I don't doubt what you are saying... don't need to take a survey.. I guess I just don't give a flying fig... America is still fairly conservative compared to the cesspool of moral degeneracy that is Europe, but I hear you and I am not surprised... there is something about the ManGod who took a break from the universe to show up in Nazareth that is just so anticlimactic I can't get myself to be excited about it... can't imagine anyone else either... I can see why it is all about the here and now, pretty colored eggs and xmas gifts.. if Tommaso di Ser Giovanni di Mone were alive today, modern xtianity would have been better immortalized into a great painting...
cheers

Gahhgh! I just posted a application for a survay darn it!
It was a brilliant one!
Anyway, what happened to the thread where i was going to pull my trump card out! It freaking vanished!
Anyway, the secular west wouldnt turn a hair at Israels temples being destroyed.
A mild number of Israeli's would , but thats a matter of national pride rather than a feeling that the antichrist wont have anywhere to spawn.
If the al aqsar mosque was demolished, and I fervently hope it wont be, then we can kiss goodbye to the human race.

is al 'aqsar' as you put it an intended pun? Never mind...
according with Islamic signs of the end 'NO-- I don't have scientific evidence' for this, an Abyssinian leader with thin shins will destroy the Ka'bah , Medina will be abandoned save for howling animals while al-aqsa will be restituted!
yes indeed great wars will break out...

I'm sure that will make them all feel much better as they stand in a radioactive wasteland watching their skin fall off in green scaly lumps. What a load of twaddle.
Talking of twaddle...
What does twaddle mean?

funny how the non muslims on this forum dont condemn or speak out against such comments, yet when iranians say that IF ISRAEL OR AMERICA ATTACKS THEM they will retaliate these same none muslims come on this forum and on their media saying iran is going mad and making inciteful hate filled comments.
but when israel does it noooooooooooo no offcourse thats not hate speech or inciting, no offcourse not how could it? only when Muslims speak out its hate-filled speech.
seriously the double standards and hypocrisy is DISGUSTING.
What's new here? Most of them are hypocrites and disgusting. Why you act surprised?

Am I right brothers and sisters?

Nothing would happen. The latest is the revelation in a Swiss newspaper that Israel imports Iranian oil on a large scale even though contacts with Iran and purchasing of its products are officially boycotted by Israel. Israel gets around the boycott by having the oil delivered via Europe. The Iranian oil is liked in Israel because its quality is better than other crude oils
The only possible scenarios in which Israel would even consider using nuclear weapons:
1. Iran has already built them and all intelligence points to the fact that they are going to use them against Israel, or have already pushed the button.
2. The surrounding Arab countries discover time travel and skip to the future in order to create a robot super-force armed with laser cannons and which have the ability to transform into fantastical civilian vehicles.
Otherwise they just drop conventional bombs for a few days.

For a group of people that rag on Islam being disrespect there's an awful lot of disrespect for the beliefs of Christians.
