Tehran claims that it will hit Dimona if attacked
Tehran has said that if it is attacked by the United States or by Israel, it will retaliate by attacking Israel's nuclear reactor in Dimona. Teheran will target Israel's Dimona reactor in a retaliatory attack if the Islamic regime is hit by an Israeli or US air strike, a Iranian official told the Arabic-language newspaper Asharq al-Awsat on Monday.I suppose no one should be surprised by this. And we'll find out fairly quickly how well all those anti-missile devices work. I don't expect Iran to succeed.
"Teheran is aware that Israel and the United States want to target Iran, but we are also aware that while they actually have the option to launch war, they do not have the option to end it. This is America's and Israel's point of weakness. We know that there is no solution to this point of weakness, thanks to the importance of the Gulf region, America's problems in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the (geographically) small area of the Zionist entity," the anonymous official was quoted by the paper as saying. He also specified that the Dimona reactor would be on the top of Iran's target list in a potential war.
The official added that the Iranian regime did not see any strong reason to reach an accommodation with Israel because of the declining of view of Israel's strategic value among Western countries, including the US. "We believe that the United States is looking for a strong partner in the region as an alternative to its dependence on Israel in the future. We in Iran believe that the United States and the Western nations now view Israel more as a burden and that Israel is incapable of contributing to achieving peace in the Middle East," he said to Asharq al-Awsat.
The official went on to say that the Islamic regime would seek to expand it's presence in Syria and Lebanon as Israel's influence in the region declines and Iran acquires nuclear capability.

because of Obami's feckless and incompetent leadership, because of Euroweenie cowardice, because of a brainless git elected by Israelis a few years ago, the Iranian's assessment may not be far off base.
The reality is off base, but given the Obami's mad desire to genuflect towards islam, and the Euroweenies desire not to piss off the violent portion of their new citizenry, it really doesn't matter.
What Europe was unable to accomplish by itself in the 1930's and 40's, it has outsourced to the mullocracy.
We know Obami is an empty suit. So does most of the world now. So he can be effectively ignored. Which is what they are doing to him.
His ineptitude created a power vacuum that Iran is stepping into. Unrepentant for their support of terror, murder and mayhem.
Contrary to what Mr. Obama thinks, this won't end well. For anyone.
Good job Barak. Good job.
Bush didn't do this. You did. You own it. Because you broke it.
