Iran, WOULD NEVER strike Israel. Iran KNOWS the consequences of using such weapons. MAD (mutually assured destruction) still applies. I do not care what your argument is. Even the most radical fundamentalist knows that using nuclear weapons means the imminent destruction of their country and their people. Western countries would obliterate Iran, should they choose to fire nuclear weapons. Look at the cold war, numerous times both sides the US and Soviet Union were minutes away from sending missles. Even when tensions were at their peak such as during the Cuban Missle Crisis when the U.S. Navy blockaded Cuba and Russian supply ships were forced to turn around. Your article is a conservative propoganda peice, that the Bush administration and conservation propoganda stations such as Fox News feed to the American public who are so dumb that they can't tell the difference.
