I've thought exactly the same way as you for a long time. I still believe Iran is pursuing nukes and I know nothing will ever change because their new leader is the same as their old leader; a violent anti-west/anti-Israel revolutionary Islamic radical. However......I'm really beginning to think Iran is just like N.Korea; all bark and no bite. Maybe that has to do with all of the covert action against them (quite possible). I don't really think Iran or Syria have the collective nuts to start anything major with Israel or the west anymore. I hope I'm right.

The problem is that "time" is not on our side! Its not going to take Iran more than another 3 to 5 years to develop the capability to be able to deliver a nuke to Israel via missile! Israel will not wait until it has developed such capability (and nor will the US!!!). So one can deduct that something will happen before that moment arrives, be it a convential strike/s or a mini nuke!! This Iran/Israel face off isnt going to go away until Irans current radical setup (AH etc) is gone and a moderate non-anti west civilian government is in place!!
Time will reveal all....
Wrong. Israel will never attack Iran because it can't. It is militarily inferior.

Wrong. Israel will never attack Iran because it can't. It is militarily inferior. That is why they want the US to do it for them. Iran already has the capability to attack Israel with a nuclear missile. What happened when Pakistan developed an arsenal of "Islamic" bombs? Nothing. The new leader is not a violent ant-west/anti-Israel revolutionary islamic leader. Neither was the old leader. Stop letting yourself be brainwashed.
