The Godfather of Conspira: Thanks for the reply, I was just making a guest... I'm not a nuclear scientist.

Minor correction, Chernobyl was a 3.2Gigawatt plant

Well yes, 3200 MWe is 3.2 Gigawatt.

contained 4 graphite-moderated reactors compared to Iran's VVER heavy-water reactors producing 915MW.

These are far, far more stable and less prone to to the release of radioactive material in the event of containment failure due to the spray steam suppression system and double-enveloping steel and concrete containment building.

So you're saying that even if Israel struck the power plant and the whole system didn't work anymore that it wouldn't release radiation, it would be ``safe`` to strike the central, killing only those inside?

Bushehr isn't online, Russia still hasn't finished construction and so far the only thing going on there currently is reactor testing.

You're right, it's supposed to go online on September 1 of this year.

can someone please explain something. if israel do attack iran, it will have to go through Iraqi airspace. therefore they would need the US approval to do this surely.

so what do iran do back? surely theres no way iran would be allowed to strike by using iraqi airspace?

also, if iran has to use iraqi airspace, do they have missiles than can reach israel from there own soil?

G.

I think it's time for the war to start. Either way, it might happen sooner or later anyways, so why wait?

People are dumb, and so they deserve what they get in which this case it's DEATH!

Hopefully it won't happen, but we never know.

Israel has been planning to attack iran every month since i joined this site... feel free to look at my join date.

*posted in another post about this*

we have all been saying it for a while, we knew it would happen sooner or later

since the Rothschilds own Israel, and Iran is one of 5 nations who don't have a Rothschilds Central Bank, the pieces fit quite nicely don't you think?

it's just a matter of what the outcome will bring with other nations, the Illuminati/NWO have been wanting a WWIII for a long time.. who knows when they will call it into play

It's thought that Iran is running two parallel nuclear development operations. One they announce publicly, expecting it to ultimately get inspected, be force to close down, or even get hit.

The other one is kept secret. The Israeli bombing of the under construction nuclear facility in Syria in September 2007 was an indicator of the Iranian and North Korean collaboration North Korea is contributing material and technology.

Currently Iran is having difficulty with the delivery system and more significantly miniaturization aspects required tosend a small enough but powerful payload.
There have already been 2 serious accidents in Iran involving radioactive materials.

No one knows what materials they are having brought in surreptitiously. A Iranian Canadian was just convicted for trying to send essential parts he bought in the US.
US, Israeli, and other intelligence sevices do not want to tip their hands to soon, but there is no question Iran is up to far more than they are letting on.

Israel’s threats to Iran are part of a logistics game Iran has set up heavily financing Hezbollah and Hamas to confront what they perceive as US interests, but by proxy.
How much Iran's nuclear programs are for attention no one can say for sure. The fact that they give weekly announcements instead of maintaining stony silence indicates it's more political than overt preparation for war.

Iran and Israel are now talking through back channels about better co-operation. Neither of them really wants a confrontation, nuclear or otherwise. The fallout would cause devastation throughout the region, and oil production would be severely compromised.

The insecurity of Iran makes them posture outlandishly and make threats to Israel in an attempt to rally sympathy from other countries. This strategy has had limited success and may already be backfiring.

About all we can gather from their track record is that whenever they annouce something to the media, it means they’re really up to something else.

Stay tuned.

Isreal is very dangerous right now, and they are totally capable of such attacks, even without US permission. They don't even want another country to do their dirty work, they just want to be supported enough to make an attack without causing a big stir with the world. There is a percentile chance that Isreal will attack Iran without any permission and if that occurs other countries will jump up and there would be a huge stir worldwide that could cause a chain-reaction. I don't see this happening, even though its close to it.

I wonder if the FEMA camps are designed for a whole new bunch of consciencious objectors?

Sorry about the short post, but that's all I have to say.

i believe Israel is posturing. They just may launch a strike against Iran, but what will it cost them in the end? The Israelis always act in their own self interest as all nations do, but the cost! An attack against Iran would immediately launch a theater wide war in the middle east. Iran would shut off the oil flowing through the Persian Gulf. Will the United States continue to support Israel if their attack causes a complete financial collapse of our country? What would the backlash be from Europe? Israel would become a pariah.

the only way an attack would be valid is if there was a false flag attack on israeli soil first to justify their attack.

They are probably multiple use facilities. For instance, they could house displaced people from the Gulf Coast.

Political prisoners could be placed in them, and the homeless.

People who refuse to take a vaccine during an outbreak could be quarantined.

If the US economy were to collapse, there are about 30 million Mexican nationals in the US that retain Mexican citizenship. They could be prevented from returning to Mexico.

I've been hearing this same line reiterated since 2006, when people were foaming at the mouth claiming WW3 was only days away.

Spare me.

Israel doesn't take a dump without first consulting with Washington and there's no way Obama is authorising anything on Iran right now.

If Bush said "no" in 2008, what makes anyone think Obama is going to in good conscience, authorise an unprovoked tactical strike on Iran?

There was that little thing in South Ossettia right at the start of the Olympics.

If the operation went successfully the Russians could have been badly hurt.

It seemed as a prelude to a naval blockade of Iran.

Did Bush really say no?
