#1 This would give Israel the golden opportunity to eliminate Fatah, Hamas, and oh yes, Syria in one fell swoop.

#3 If the mooted war comes, Israel should drive all Muslims from the WB and Gaza into Jordan and Egypt. Get rid of them permanently and be done with it.

#5 Doesn't this call for a random response on "Iranian"/Twelver/Shiite global interests?

#6 We have been pussyfooting around with these mullahfuc*kers for 30 years. It is about time to shown them what the hell ~~terror~~ war is really all about. They declared war on us long ago. Let's get on with it.

#7 Time to dance. Lets see if the US and Israel Air Force can remove the nuke facilities and their key military comms and facilities all in one night. Sort of a modern day "Name that tune" type war. We can wager on how many targets can be hit in Iran in one night. Vegas can take odd on just how silent the border on Israel will be once the paleo's realize their cash cow is dead.

#9 I want the icing on the cake. If there is some way of cajoling Iran to attack first, and ineffectively, it would take care of LOTS of hassles.

A casus belli would almost have to be one or more ballistic missiles, so that everybody could see where they were coming from and going to.

It would even be best if there were some too-small-to-be-nuclear ones that were fired with the larger ones, that were allowed to impact, again, ineffectively, as evidence.

And it is too important to be left up to Iran to do it the right, wrong way. It should be so blatant that nobody will buy their sniveling excuses and efforts to bullshit their way out of it.

#10 'Moose, you're asking for too much. It wouldn't matter if God Himself came down with Moses and stated that Iran had started it, the usual suspects on the left would find some way to spin it into being our fault. Try asking for a pony instead; that's much more likely to show up!
