Ever since the United States voted in favor of forming a Jewish state in Israel in the partition vote of 1947, the United States has been committed to supporting Israel. Even if the US did not give consent or aid to help Israel attack Iran's nuclear facilities Israel would most likely still do it.

In 1976, terrorists hijacked a plane from Israel and took it to Entebbe Airport in Uganda. Israel launched a rescue mission and flew from Israel to Uganda. The nation of Kenya allowed the Israelis to land and refuel. They were able to rescue the hostages with only losing one man.

So my point is Israel can hold its own and it has proved it.

I should think if any threat were imminent, Israel would attack without first waiting if the USA would permission and help or if the United Nations would be in favor of such an attack. They would be fools if they didn't. I cannot imagine that the topic has not been raised between the two nations and the U.N. at this point.

hi ar you knows Ahamadi najad or not if you knows you know that hes carzy but can israel trust to carzy man that we know any way cant attack to israel???

I think if they could they would have done it before the end of George Bush's term. The Obama administration, IMO, is much less lenient than Bush on Middle East engagements. Also, the opportunity America is giving Iran to boost their image and position in the eyes of the rest of the world is unparalleled to anything Bush or his damned father have ever done. The military shows they keep broadcasting with their airplanes mean nothing if they aren't going to back it up. Last point, if Israel couldn't beat Hezboulah in 2006 (lol) how he hell do they expect to succeed in Iran which is much more powerful than a militia with AK-47's.

Also, i bleive Iran is to get the anti-air S-300 missiles from Russia in the near future. How do you guys think this will effect Israel's motives or abilities?
