What could Iran possibly achieve with nuclear weapons other than mutually assured destruction...I've flown over the eastern Med and seen all the way from Turkey to Haifa with all of Cyprus, Lebanon and the Syrian coast in between...it's a very small piece of real estate everyone is all excited about. Any Iranian strike would wipe out all the people the Iranians were allegedly trying to help, the Palestinians, along with some nasty fallout on all the neighbors, not to mention the ca 1.5 million Arab-Israelis. Who could possibly believe this is a realistic scenario?
