HERZLIYA, Israel (Reuters) - Israel is primed for a war on Iran, a deputy to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday, in a rare break with his government's reticence as world powers try to talk Tehran into curbing its nuclear plans.

By spearheading assaults on guerrillas in neighboring Lebanon and Palestinian territories, the Israeli air force had gained the techniques necessary for any future strikes on Iranian sites, Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon said.

"There is no doubt that the technological capabilities, which improved in recent years, have improved range and aerial refueling capabilities, and have brought about a massive improvement in the accuracy of ordnance and intelligence," he told a conference of military officers and experts.

"This capability can be used for a war on terror in Gaza, for a war in the face of rockets from Lebanon, for war on the conventional Syrian army, and also for war on a peripheral state like Iran," said Yaalon, a former armed forces chief.

pointing his human cannon fodder in the direction of Iran.

Whatever Israel decides to do, I hope we don't get pulled into a third war in the region. I got a bad feeling ...

Iran will hand 'em their asses.

Their capabilities and the outcome of such an attack by israel is uncertain, indeed.

Obama needs to lean on those fucking crazies in Tel Aviv, for our sake, if not for theirs.

Let's see...

World economies about to collapse, CHECK!

World ecosystem about to collapse, CHECK!

World governments about to collapse, CHECK!

Might as well finish us all off, and put us out of our misery...

CHECK!

We all saw the real terror in Gaza, and it was raining from Israeli helicopters.

"By spearheading assaults on guerrillas in neighboring Lebanon and Palestinian territories, the Israeli air force had gained the techniques necessary for any future strikes on Iranian sites, Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon said."

Take a moment to recollect the 'techniques' you saw employed in those conflicts. So now we are going to have the war crimes and humanitarian disasters of Gaza and Lebanon inflicted upon Iranians? Fucking great.

What do they plan to do: nuke everybody simultaneously?

as long as we have a veto.
