Iran
I smell a troll however if Iran nukes Israel as previously suggested the West has the ability to ensure Iran doesn't drop another. The West out guns them 1000 to 1. A conventional war would suffice. Iran has very few friends.
A lot of posters seem content for a lot of people to die to satisfy their blood lust.

No - you said "Goodbye Iran" - I was only asking who and how you think this is going to happen. I never suggest that Iran would nuke Israel - I said they'd carry out A TEST to prove they now are a nuclear power. They have a habit of not responding directly to actions by their opponents - attacking Israel is what everyone expects - I suspect they may do something different

I kind of hate to say this, but what you've outlined is close to a 'best case' scenario.

Reports that İran has launched drones against Israel.
Iran launched UAVs from within its territory toward Israel a short while ago. The IDF is on high alert and is constantly monitoring the operational situation. The IDF Aerial Defense Array is on high alert, along with IAF fighter jets and Israeli Navy vessels that are on a defense mission in Israeli air and naval space. The IDF is monitoring all targets.

The point here is that Iran has directly attacked Israel - which gives Israel carte blanc to retaliate with direct attacks against Iranian targets both within Iran and afloat in the Red Sea.,.,
Drones are expected to reach Israel in about 2 hours.

My wife is in Tehran at the moment and was due to fly back to the UK tonight. She boarded her flight but I've just heard that its been cancelled which is good in a way as she is still on the ground. I giess its going to take a while to work out when she will be safe to fly home though.
Beirut airport closed. Jordan, Iran, Yemen airspace closing. RAF Voyager flown from Akrotiri to Beirut. US fighters reportedly intercepting drones over Iraq and Jordan and Jordan has been reported as allowing Israeli fighters to go through their airspace to intercept drones. Drones also reported to be launched from Yemen and numerous Hezbollah rockets from S Lebanon. Further reports that RAF fighters took off from Akrotiri and are intercepting drones over I raq.
The Iranians were bragging about having over four thousand missiles in tunnels .
Seal off the tunnels and the people in them and this could be a very short fireworks display .

Looks like three tankers airborne over Israel right now, can only imagine how much hardware they have up. May calm heads prevail in future.

A KC135 has been squawking 7700 for a good hour and positioning into DOH.
Is that normal in this situation?

Cruise missiles overflying Iraq heading to Israel, why do I think Iran has just wakened a response that they will regret.

To some it may seem a dumb question, but warfare is not my forte
Given tonight's developments, I've heard of American and UK air forces being involved. Is anyone else involved? Or is it a stupid question to ask?
