I hope they dont attack Iran as a whole, just the sites where they are making nukes. I know a lot of Iranian people and I like them, and they dont like the leaders there. The people want to rebell, its really sad.
lets say Israel does take out the plants and the president of Iran, would you support them?
Problems with the attack:
1) We do not even know where all the sites are.
2) Russia has been selling very good anti-air defense to Iran.
3) Israel, in order to carry out the attack, would need to use Iraqi airspace (in the most likely scenario). This would place all the blame on the United States. Also, Israel does not have the mid-air refueling ability that would most likely be needed to carry out an attack of this magnitude as well.
4) Iran would retaliate against the United States, or United States interests in the Middle East. (Hormuz, Iraq, Saudi Arabia)
5) If the US wants them hit, odds are we simply hit them ourselves, as we have a much higher probability of success.
6) According to intelligence, technically Iran is not even making a nuke, so an airstrike means even less leverage in world opinion.
7) Attacking Iran unites a less than united domestic population.
The list can go on and on... the implications that attacking Iran will have on the interests of the United States make it in our best interest to attack Iran should we want them attacked.
Israel is well aware of this, and knows without our backing they are sunk in the region. It is in their interest to not make our lives even more miserable in the Middle East.
