The attack, the report said, would presumably trigger a war in northern Israel, with missile attacks (presumably from the Iranian-proxy Hezbollah in Lebanon). “There will be no tranquility and peace anywhere in Israel,” Ben-David said.
This could be the first full-scale war the IAF has fought in nearly 30 years, the report stated.
Pilots had already been told where their families would be moved, away from their bases, for safety, the report said.
ISTANBUL (AP) — Nuclear negotiators for Iran and six world powers were making encouraging progress in bridging differences that have doomed previous meetings meant to reduce fears over Tehran's atomic program, diplomats close to the talks said.
But, in a reality check reflecting the gulf dividing the United States and Iran, a powerful Iranian official said his country had rejected an overture from Washington for a one-on-one meeting between the two delegations at the talks. He spoke after the morning plenary session broke and plans were being formed for bilateral encounters between Iran and its six interlocutors.
"No bilateral talks with the U.S. will be formed," Alaeddin Boroujeddi, head of Iran's powerful parliamentary committee on national security and foreign policy told The Associated Press. "It is not Iran's policy to have bilateral talks with the U.S. — Iran will talk to them on the multilateral level."
Russia is massing troops along Iran's northern border to defend the Mullahcracy from a Western attack on its nuclear weapons (Hat Tip: Politik Nevada via The End Run Project).

Hopefully there are lots of backroom and backchannel negotiations going on, and all of this will be averted. Iran has as many nukes as Iraq had, none, imnho, and this is just a way to strike a deal with them not to develop any. Likely scenerio is a tacit acceptance that they will control lots of the Iraqi power structure in return for not causing other governments to worry about their nuke program.

Iran does not have nukes right now then because Iraq had none either right?
The russians will not support iran,and will go and retake georgia.
They have oil closer to the motherland and then they would control the pipeline themselves. the US gets its war,and israel gets its way.
China then takes over taiwan and japan does a defensive action against a chinese and NK invasion force with Sk's help. Then India and pakistan get into the action settling their scores,as well as argentina trying to re take the falklands tying up britain. I think this is all possible.

I believe your thread title should read IAF instead of IDF. I was wondering what the IDF is.
Sounds like war is a possibility. Also sounds like a good opportunity to sell some weapons. The US would be selling to Israel and possibly some other countries. Russia would be selling to Iran and whomever they find buyers for. Knowing how things get settled in this world by using war and bombs, I believe there is a good chance for a war by 2013.
