In reply to the discussion: Iran threatens to destroy Tel Aviv, Haifa if Israel attacks [View all]idwiyo
(5,113 posts)71. Looks like during the visit. Clearly intended as a warning to Obama that Iran is going to retaliate.
if attacked.
I seriously with Obama tells Israel they are on their own if they even think using military force.
My ideal solution to the problem: all military solution inclined hawks in both Iran and Israel government should be sent to uninhibited islan without any food or survival supplies. They will be provided with food and shelter only if they managed to cooperate, otherwise they are on their own. Definitely 24 hours TV coverage.
Wonder how long they will last before they manage to start properly talking to each other.
I bet though they will have at least one fist fight before they realise how stupid they behave.

Are you willfully ignoring that Israel is also threatening Iran. That they must be stopped?

Iraq started that war. They launched a full scale invasion against Iran and were backed by the US.
