Israel Strikes Iran - What Then?

What would Iran do? Everyone would be poised for a massive military response. They might be surprised.
Iran would almost certainly give the required 90 days notice of its intention to quit the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and terminate inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Iranian officials would not necessarily announce that they intended to proceed with development of a nuclear weapon, but they would certainly make clear that as a nonnuclear state that had been attacked by another state with nuclear weapons, that was a decision that was entirely up to them. All enriched uranium stocks would be removed from IAEA seal, and all monitoring cameras would be removed. MORE

  1. The what if?
    Is anyone's guess.
    But, but, I can assure one and all that the world will cease to be as we know it now.
    World opinion is slowing churning against Israel.
    A country that has the best propaganda machine on the planet.
    The immediate blowback will be huge not just against Israel, but the whole region.
    And most probably the whole world. Especially economically. Israel just might win that battle, but it will lose the ultimate war.

  2. Yes it will lose the war ultimately. But the petulant damage they will do in the interim steeped as they are in their ignorance and bigotry doesn't bear thinking about.
