Israeli Navy Prepares for Potential Attack on Iran's Nuclear Facilities
Quote:
Two Israeli missile class warships have sailed through the Suez Canal, ten days after a submarine capable of launching a nuclear missile strike, in preparation for a possible attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
The deployment into the Red Sea, confirmed by Israeli officials, was a clear signal that Israel was able to put its strike force within range of Iran at short notice. It came before long-range exercises by the Israeli air force in America later this month and the test of a missile defense shield at a U.S. missile range in the Pacific Ocean.
Israel has strengthened ties with Arab nations who also fear a nuclear-armed Iran. In particular, relations with Egypt have grown increasingly strong this year over the “shared mutual distrust of Iran”, according to one Israeli diplomat. Israeli naval vessels would likely pass through the Suez Canal for an Iranian strike.
“This is preparation that should be taken seriously. Israel is investing time in preparing itself for the complexity of an attack on Iran. These maneuvers are a message to Iran that Israel will follow up on its threats,” an Israeli defense official said.
It is believed that Israel’s missile-equipped submarines, and its fleet of advanced aircraft, could be used to strike at in excess of a dozen nuclear-related targets more than 800 miles from Israel.
Ahmed Aboul Gheit, the Egyptian Foreign Minister, said that his Government explicitly allowed passage of Israeli vessels, and an Israeli admiral said that the drills were “run regularly with the full co-operation of the Egyptians.”
Two Israeli Saar class missile boats and a Dolphin class submarine have passed through Suez. Israel has six Dolphin-class submarines, three of which are widely believed to carry nuclear missiles.
This is not looking good at all. I don't know what Iran's intentions are, and I'm not going to act like I know. What I can make from this is Israel is preparing for an attack on Iran. How this plays out is anyone's guess. This is one thing the U.S. doesn't need to be involved in.
*yawn* That's cool I guess... we move ships all the time for a variety of reasons, they have just as much right to be there as anyone else (freedom of the seas).

Sounds like Israel is reminding Iran they have bigger dicks. Metaphorically speaking of course...
Iran will probably response will probably something along the lines of, "pfft, we ain't afraid," more dick swinging will ensue... and then nothing will happen.

Do it all the time? Iran is getting closer every minute to achieving nuclear weapon capabilities. I agree something needs to be done. Having an unstable country with nuclear weapons is not something I want to see.
when hasn't Israel been ready to blow the **** out of any of the nearby countries...

Iran is Israel's 'mortal enemy'. They have been at it for decades. Israel has been pleading with the U.S. to get the green light to attack, and who knows, maybe they got it.

In response to your previous post, Israel always conducts operations that seem to threaten Iran.
Now this post- The Obama admin. said that they would not stop Israel from bombing Iran, so they already have the green light.
You can only threaten for so long. It's either put up or shut up. It will either be Israel attacking Iran or Iran attacking Israel. Either scenario will not have a fairytale 'happily ever after' ending.

You are the most paranoid ****ing douche in the history of pbnation. You made a promise, based on your honor as a man that you wouldn't post on these boards again. You lied, and here you are. Where is your honor?
Edit: And look at the responses your threads get. Everyone calls you out as a looney, every time. Take a ****ing hint.
I never said we (the U.S.) should do something about it.
