We'll show you 'hell,' Iran tells Israel
Israel will learn the true meaning of "hell" if it decides a military strike against Iran is worth the risk, an Iranian national security official said.
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is said to have been reviewing strike plans against Iran's nuclear infrastructure as the International Atomic Energy Agency expressed concerns about Tehran's nuclear ambitions.
Iranian officials have said any attack on its nuclear infrastructure would be suicidal.
"If a military challenge is started against Iran in the region, the Zionist regime will definitely be faced with a hell," Javad Jahangirzadeh, a lawmaker on Iran's national security commission, told the semiofficial Fars News Agency.
The Israeli military in 2007 destroyed a site in Syria thought to be part of a nuclear program under construction with the help of the North Koreans. In 1981, the Israeli military launched a surprise attack on a nuclear reactor outside of Baghdad.
