Israel Will Attack Iran

If Israel feels threatened by Iranian Nuclear ambitions it will undoubtedly Attack first.

They have done it before.

One Upon a Time, Saddam Hussein was building a Nuclear programme and in 1981 Israel Warplanes flew a surprise attack air mission codenamed Operation Opera, against the Iraqi complex at Al Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Center, near Baghdad. The facility was crippled in the Israeli attack.

The facility had been damaged previously in an Iranian attack during the war between the two Islamic nations in the 1980's.

In 1991 the facility was completely destroyed during the Gulf War by US aircraft.

So if Israel attacked a nuclear threat then, will they do it again? I think the answer is most certainly yes, and perhaps soon.

Above is an image of Israeli F-16s. This aircraft will surely be the ones which are used in such an attack mission against Iran. Unfortunately for Israel, the Iranians also have some quite impressive military hardware after all they were all bought at the same mall. That mall?

USA-Mart.

The Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) holds a wealth of American technology which although some people might argue is out of date, they still have a substantial war fighting capability. The F15 and F14 fighters are both proven air and ground attack aircraft, add the sidewinder missile and you have a formidable force of air opponents.

The Iranian Air Force also boasts a number of Russian technology including the MiG-29, Sukhoi Su-24 and Sukhoi Su-25. Georgia and Russia were both reported to be using Su-25's in the 2008 South Ossetia War.

There are also reports that Iran has the SU-30.

On the whole, Israeli technology is superior, no argument there, but I doubt Iran will allow them to pull a surprise attack.

I think Iran is waiting for war.
