Iran commander: If Israel attacks, ‘nothing will remain’
Iran commander: If Israel attacks, ‘nothing will remain’ | World | Jewish Journal.
Iran’s top Revolutionary Guard commander warned that “nothing will remain” if Israel takes military action against Iran over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear activities.
“Our response to Israel is clear: I think nothing will remain of Israel” should it attack Iran, Gen. Mohammad Ali Jafari said Sunday, providing more specifics than are typically included in Iranian threats, according to The Associated Press.
“Given Israel’s small land area and its vulnerability to a massive volume of Iran’s missiles, I don’t think any spot in Israel will remain safe,” he said.
Jafari also warned that Iran might close the Straits of Hormuz if it is attacked, withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and hit U.S. bases in the Middle East, AP reported.
“The U.S. military bases sprawled around Iran are considered a big vulnerability. Even the missile shields that they have set up, based on information we have, could only work for a few missiles, but when exposed to a massive volume of missiles the shields will lose their efficiency and will not work,” he said.
Jafari’s comments come as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been calling for the United States to set “red lines” on Iran’s nuclear program.

I’ve said for many years that Israel is afraid of Iran’s missile development- and missile building capacity. Wars nowadays are not fought with tanks and infantry anymore, but with drones and missiles.
Israel knows all too well that it can not win a missile war with Iran, a country larger than Spain, France, Germany and the UK combined.
This is the real reason why Israel wants Iran “contained” with “strangling sanctions” using Iran’s nuclear energy program as a stick to beat the dog.

Bullshit.
Never in the history of war missiles have decided a war.
Only missiles with bio/chemical/nuclear warheads can do that.
