Iran is planning to bomb Israel?

Question

The PeoplePC home page for top news claims "Iran draws up plans to bomb Israel" (you can see for yourself here http://home.peoplepc.com/ ). This title is supposed to refect the same news story I link to here http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070919/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_israel but obviously the title PeoplePC created falsely accuses Iran being on the aggressive in preparing to bomb Israel. The news story itself slants toward there being something extraordinary about Iran claiming it will defend itself if attacked, but wouldn't you expect ANY nation to say the same?

What is the deal with the sudden onslaught of pro-war propaganda in the media?

Answer 1

Iran is the bully?? America is the good guy? You want to know who the bully is? Let me give u a history lesson which you all badly need:

In 1953, motivated by its desire to control Iranian oil fields, Britain convinced the USA to overthrow the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Iranian leader, Mohammed Mossadegh. The project to overthrow Iran's government was code-named "Operation Ajax ".
Our CIA used its spies to implement the coup, from the US Embassy in Iran, in order to re-install Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as leader, and was motivated by the desire for preserving Western control of Iran's oil infrastructure. 300 were killed in this atrocity.

The result of this coup led to "discontent with the erosion of Iran's social mores, a sluggish economy, and other developments which caused widespread dissatisfaction with the regime of the Shah, leading to the 1979 Islamic Revolution." The STUDENTS (not the government) who took over the embassy, accused its personnel of being CIA agents plotting to overthrow the revolutionary government, just as the CIA had done to Mohammad Mossadegh in 1953. America, instead of diplomatic negotiations, attacked Iran with it's most complicated and advanced army units(Operation Eagle Claw April 24, 1980). Only when that failed, did they use diplomacy, which caused the releasment of Americans in January 20, 1981.

After this revolution, Iran's military was less than weak (it was disbanded) and Iraq took the advantage and invaded.
Iraq was finacially backed and TRAINED by the USA.
With more than 100,000 Iranian victims of Iraq's chemical weapons during the eight-year war, IRAN IS THE WORLD'S SECOND MOST AFFLICTED COUNTRY BY WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION — SECOND ONLY TO JAPAN. The total Iranian casualties of the war were estimated to be anywhere between 500,000 and 1,000,000.
One can say that the USA has played a stong hand TWICE with weapons of mass destrucion. - And currently, the USA has invaded Iraq for implementing what the USA actually payed for...**sigh**.
Meanwhile, Israel has anywhere from 75 -200 nuclear weapons, and is a country who has already, once before implemented a PRE-EMPTIVE strike on its surrounding nations: look up the 6 day war....

What happened next is most appaling (if one can even rate this...) The American government attacked Iran's COMMERCIAL FLIGHTon July 3, 1988:
Iran Air Flight 655 (IR655) was a commercial flight that flew from Bandar Abbas, Iran to Dubai, UAE. On Sunday July 3, 1988, this aircraft was shot down by the U.S. Navy Ticonderoga class guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes between Bandar Abbas and Dubai, killing all 290 passengers and crew aboard, including 38 non-Iranians and 66 children. The USS Vincennes was inside Iranian territorial waters at the time. According to the US government, the Iranian airbus was mistakenly identified as an attacking F14 fighter (which is an aweful joke, because it is very easy for a civilian [let alone military personell] to distinguish an airbus from a F14!!!) The U.S. government never admitted wrongdoing, nor apologized for the incident.
On top of this, the men of the Vincennes were all awarded combat-action ribbons.(I think that explains that they deliberately shot the commercial plane). - Would this fly with any other country???? Think about it. If Iran blew up one of our civilian planes, in OUR waters......
Oh yeah - "poor America...Those evil Iranians"
- FOR SHAME!!!!! Learn your history.

Answer 2

no rely if that is, that is superb with me, there's a real possibility from Iran, as antagonistic to the faux possibility from Iraq. Israel fights its very own battles, and easily... the international isn't chuffed approximately Iran having the bomb and a lunatic government and could no longer merchandise too strenuously if that befell. helpful there may well be the commonplace bombastic language, however the international might sigh in alleviation and bypass on. permit Israel try this is a user-friendly way of thinking in diplomatic circles and that they won't do it with out tacit, secret approval.

Answer 3

Iran's leader has been vowing to destroy Israel for a long time now, publicly and vocally. It has 600 missiles pointed directly at the Jewish state.

How many times will Iran threaten Israel before we take them seriously?

History shows us what happens when the world stands by and does nothing. Syria has been giving nuclear materials to Iran and to terrorist group Hezbollah. We must show Iran that we won't just watch while they threaten the existence of other nations.

Iran is a bully, and there's only one way to deal with a bully.

Answer 4

The only plans right now are that everyone is trying to do everything to keep someone or country from setting off a nuclear bomb, but I'm afraid it's only a question of time when it happens. It's not will they or will they not, it's when.

Answer 5

Iran will atom bomb israel thru hamas tunnels which is reaching central israel...god forbids!

Answer 6

yeah-Iran is the good guys arent they?
Maybe in your mind, but not in mine and most other sane people.

Answer 7

NO!
