10. Should Israel launch such a strike |
|
And should Iran have a few nuclear weapons that survive the Israeli strike (and can be delivered), the Israeli government would bring on the very fate that they claim to fear.
I doubt very much that Iran intends to commit national suicide so that they can wipe out Israel. We used to hear the same claims about the Soviet Union - fanatical communists would be willing see hundreds of millions of their own people die as long as the center of capitalist power was destroyed. It never happened. This is the same kind of irrational fear mongering.
