Israel may launch missile strike on Iran, report warns

A leading foreign policy think tank in Washington said a strike by Israel on Iran will give rise to regional instability and conflict as well as terrorism.

A study by the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington said that due to the complexity and risk involved in an air strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, Israel may opt to strike with ballistic missiles if there are no other means to curtail the Islamic republic's nuclear programme. The study said that in the event of such an attack a strike on the Bushehr nuclear reactor would cause the immediate death of thousands of people in the area. Thousands or even hundreds of thousands would subsequently die of cancer and radioactive contamination would "most definitely" heavily affect Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE.

You really think Iran would destroy Israel? I doubt it.

I read the book 'Two minutes over Baghdad'. Not even a single shot was fired on israely plane & it just bombed the Iraqi nuclear plant & left. That was before Iraq attacked Kuwait & during Iran-Iraq war.

Israel bombed a Syrian nuclear target a little while back and no one blinked.

This is just sabre rattling.

Just don't tell my parents. They'll worry unnecessarily.

As for me, if it's time to go, it's time to go... what was it someone said about skidding in to happy hunting ground sideways with a glass of wine in one hand and (?) in the other...

"A leading foreign policy think tank in Washington said a strike by Israel on Iran will give rise to regional instability and conflict as well as terrorism"

So, is this the same american think tank that said iraq had wmd's or that they can go anywhere in the world, invading countries without reason, in the name of " national security"

F******* stupid yanks, again causing panic,whilst worrying about where their next oil barrel will come from....

tht wont be a wise decision. Keeping in mind that IRAN has nuclear power with them. Hope it wont come to having to push the "red" button.

So, what's new. They (israel) have the arsenal and the capability. But hope they always are in their sense's.

Or we are all that prepared???
