Iran Again Warns Israel Against Attack

[Bhaisahab]

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - Insisting that Tehran's nuclear program is peaceful, Iran's foreign minister reiterated Tuesday that Iran would retaliate to any Israeli strike against its nuclear facilities.

"If they would do that, we would react," Iran's Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi said during a visit to New Zealand.

"We have our defense capability and that certainly keeps others from exercising such a threat. They know what is our capability and how ... we react."

Kharrazi's comments echo similar statements made last week by Iran, which warned Israel it would attack the Dimona nuclear facility if its own facilities were targeted.

2. Explosive situation

I'm pretty sure there will be Pentagon involvement in any Israeli plan. Of course it will be denied.

3. Total insanity run amok!

The US continued support of Israel and their policies are going to be the death of us all.

I'm sorry and I apologize in advance and do not want to start a flame war.

Most of all it is the US. Why are we and a few other countries allowed to have nuclear weapons and develop better ones all the time? Why do we (the US) get to decide who gets to have them and who doesn't? I say we need to get rid of them all. There is absolutely no need to wreck this place we call home. The Planet Earth.

it self from invades....Fuck it's the only "HUMAN" thing to do. I support Iran in this situation...Who the hell is the US to tell other countries not to have destructive weaponse when we are busy making and selling them all the time.

6. Fix weapons. Spelling don't you know? But thanks for supporting

my position. Ike warned us in his farewell speech, "beware the military/industrial complex". We've had so many warnings and all we did was go to sleep. I'm guilty as well, but no more. We all have our ups and our downs. Just the other night we talked about feeling so much as though we are on a roller coaster ride. Wild as all hell with lots of chugs up a hill and then a swift ride down and then it evens out for just a little while.

Sorry for the crazy rant. See you all tomorrow.
