Israeli Military Demonstrates Ability to Attack Iran, U.S. Officials Say
Friday, June 20, 2008
American military officials say Israel launched a major military exercise that appeared to be aimed in part at demonstrating its ability to stage an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.
Israel's military refused to publicly confirm or deny whether the exercise was a rehearsal for a potential bombing attack.
But a senior Israeli Air Force official close to the operation told FOX News that the military is preparing for all possibilities with Iran, and during this exercise was testing its refueling capabilities. The source said helicopters were even used to practice how to respond to a downed plane.

Owner's Comments: I have no problem with the Israeli's getting ready for war with Iran. I only question the wisdom of printing this news story. Israel is our Ally and Iran is not, it seems that we are harming Israel by publicizing this exercise.
Do You Trust Barak Obama to pick your Doctor? If not vote John McCain for President!

Sorry But I will not allow racist rants to be posted to my blog.
Any military strike against Iranian nuclear facilities would just be a slap on the wrist for Iran, and could possibly be fodder for another major war in the Middle East.
It is foolish I think, and Israel is over confident on its air superiority.
To stop Iran from pursuing nuclear technology would require another US invasion or regime change.
Talk of a military strike is just political points for Israeli politicians.
A military strike is pretty stupid I think.
